Who would’ve thought picking apples could be so much effin’ fun? This was also a first for me, and I was invited by my friend Nicole and her friend Nneka, whom I met while bowling a month before. We went mid November of 2011. It was sunny and 65 degrees and I loved every single minute of it!

Is there a better way to celebrate our country’s freedom than with sun, water, sand, fireworks and friends? I doubt it! Last 4th of July some of my friends and I took a trip to South Beach-Miami, FL. And here’s a little bit of the experience…
