You can read my longer essay about the orchard here: http://pagantolutheran.blogspot.com/2009/04/arthur.html<br /><br />Betty Thiessen, who is Arthur and Olga's daughter, is still the owner and proprietor of the orchard. You could probably contact her at the orchard by phone--the number would be easily accessible from any phone. You might just want to wait till, say December, to try to contact her. The orchard is going to be nuts right now; I'm afraid she wouldn't have much time for you. <br />Also, the orchard does not allow "pick your own". It is strictly an employee-pick operation.Bruce Geehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18140478955080857310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7206866042338169907.post-90257779453678506162009-09-23T13:54:27.486-05:002009-09-23T13:54:27.486-05:00my name is daniel koberstein

I have a much longer essay called ARTHUR that I wrote for Betty about ten years ago, and I'd be happy to forward it to you (I'm thinking of putting it on my blog one of these days) if you like. <br /><br />I had heard about Olga, but hadn't heard about shoemaker. He was a good guy, I'll miss him. I saw Betty in October and had the usual brisk and sunny visit with her. Always it is a pleasure to visit Ski Hi.<br /><br />Send me your email address to hrtfurn@hughes.net, and I'll dig out the longer essay.Bruce Geehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18140478955080857310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7206866042338169907.post-70760343266345752072009-04-23T20:10:00.000-05:002009-04-23T20:10:00.000-05:00Thanks for such a great story!

Ski-Hi is always a great place for me; going up during the apple season is always a blast! I'm sorry to tell you, but Olga passed away in May 2007. Shoey recently passed away as well. They are in a better place now though. Anyway, keep going to Ski-Hi and enjoying the great time there!Kelly T.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7206866042338169907.post-30633171817099725822007-08-24T00:34:00.000-05:002007-08-24T00:34:00.000-05:00That'd be fun.
