Apple Picking: On Saturday, we filled up a school bus with 50 students on Sunday to go apple picking at Drazden Orchards. We spent the afternoon picking apples and enjoying apple cider and apple cider donuts with our fellow gnomes.

Fall Fest: On Sunday, we all gathered in the courtyard to carve pumpkins and enjoy Dean B’s grilling. Dean B brought in all kinds of Louisiana fare, including alligator nuggets, boudin balls, boudin sausage, andouille sausage, smoked beef sausage, chicken thighs, and Dean B’s red beans & rice, along with grilled vegetables. Shout out to first years, Jason Weinstein and Steven Barbee, for helping with the grilling!
