I wore jeans
Nope. There was no Apple Picking Skirt. It was too chilly.
But there were scraggly branches reaching up to the sky, limbs low and heavy with apples, giggly hiding girls, pumpkin soup in a metal thermos, brie cheese and sliced tomatoes, a cool breeze and warm sunshine, 5 cameras for 2 photographers, one snoring girl on the way home, and one crabby one. (that's ok. the rest more than makes up for it!)
I'm not fretting over the skirt. I have a great opportunity to wear it this weekend!

Yeah, it wasn't really skirt weather today (though I had to work hard to convince Elise of that this morning -- she was trying to wear that striped dress AGAIN).
We might be at AppleFest with my mom on Saturday.

I'm super curious, where did you go for apple picking? We went up to Alldredge's Apple Man Orchard in Platte City last weekend, but they were the only place in town I could find that had pick your own.
