We went peach picking today at Eckert's in Belleville, IL. This is also where we went last year for the first time (Look back to August 2010 post for a comparision!). It was quite hot, as can be seen by the bead of sweat falling down the front of Caroline's face in the first photo. The pictures don't do the heat justice. Caroline was soaked from head to toe, and she wasn't even moving around that much. We only lasted about 15 minutes in the orchard before heading back to cool off, but it ended up being plenty of time to find some delicious peaches.
To beat the heat, we finished our trip up with a yummy peach concrete. We will also be feasting on some peach cobbler tonight and in the coming days!
