Last year, I went to the orchard just to buy a few bags of apples and didn't even bring my camera.

I'm also hoping Steem will go up significantly. If it hits $5 or so, I can afford to upgrade my camera as well :-) I've been looking at the Canon 5D Mark IV and also the new mirrorless they have. The mirrorless looks nice, but I think I'd wait until they have a few more versions of it out before going that route. Besides, I'm comfortable enough with a DSLR.

Our apples at home always had worms, because we didn't use pesticides. Even the ones on the trees seemed to have bits and spots where insects had attacked them. They were great for pie, though, as long as you just cut that part out :-)
