Apples from the Orchard to Cider

While in Eugene we went to a local orchard to pick some apples and pears. 
Beckett and Momma searched for the perfect pear.
And we finally found it!

 Today we took our lug of apples (22 pounds for all of you that know farmer terms like that!) and went to the Chetco Valley Museum for cider making. 
 They had an apple press from the 1800's that they were using. 
 Beckett was very interested in the cider process. 

 All the apple leftovers...
 Out of the 22 pounds we got a little more than a gallon of cider!  Seems like a lot of apples to me. :)
 Here is Beckett and Momma with our friends, The Heath Family, looking at all the museum artifacts.
