Orange picking, a must do before leaving Florida

Today we are actually heading south from where we are staying.  I went to purchase some oranges.  I asked the man selling them where I could pick them.  He gave me the name  "Hancock Groves"  Dade City, Florida.  I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see orange trees.   We arrived at the grove.   Received our basket picker,  wagon and bag, and we were off!   I have my boots on, because my cousin, Maryann, assures me there are snakes in the trees.   We picked a medium size bag of oranges and grapefruits.  I sent some to my father in Connecticut.  It is his birthday next week.    
 
by the way ,  no snakes observed.   Just the little guy sitting on an orange
