At the last meeting there was a discussion of going to Apple Hill this Saturday.

Is there any interest? If so, we'd meet at the Placerville starbucks (by McDonalds) at 730ish and head up to High Hill Ranch just before 8AM.

It is supposed to be raining, but I'd still go - just dress appropriately and bring an umbrella. I'll be the one in shorts.

I would like to try and use the bar pins, so please leave them in. If they don't work I'll remove and return them to you.

If you can't make saturday please be sure to let us know. It sounds like its only us - so we'll bail if you aren't going.

let us know!

Apple Hill Pie would be awesome on a rainy day 8)
Makes me wish we were going, but alas, Boy Scouts have taken over our free time 👿

You mostly go for the scenery and the apples. Places like High Hill Ranch have tons of apples, apple pie, apple cider, apple donuts...They also have a trout pond, craft booths, pony rides, pumpkin patch, and a fudge factory.

Go early and beat the crowds!!!

Best Trip EVER to Apple Hill!

There was 4" of new snow on the ground. Went to Hi-Hill ranch and grabbed some donuts and some apples - we were the first group there, driving in on fresh snow. Went to Boa Vista and they had a roaring open stove fire going. We bought hot cider and apple pie slices, plus ice cream and sat in front of the fire for a couple hours. It was GREAT! Oh, and Lee + his new girlfriend came down from Washington and hung out with us.

Dang.... sounds like I missed a good time. Went to the Cal vs. Stanford massacre but in retrospect I should have gone for the hot apple pie.

Saturday was a busy day for us as we had the Trans Siberian Orchestra to see that afternoon. So Jen and I went up to Apple Hill Sunday on our way back from Sly Park. We also did some wine tasting on the way back and found Apple Hill pretty much closed. Sure was pretty up there with all the new snow.

Did you enjoy it? I saw it a few years ago and thought it was pretty amazing.
