Strawberry picking





We went strawberry picking yesterday....probably not the best time to go. The season is just about over and it was a rather cool day here---in the low 60's (which it has been in the uppper 80's) so the kids complained they were cold, their feet were wet, they had to go potty, the berries were not very plentiful and the ones they could find were either rotten or dirty so they couldn't eat them. Sound like fun ;-)


No, it wasn't that bad. We managed to pick about 9 pounds. Not quite the experience we had last year---I think we picked over 35 pounds and canned jam, but not this year---too many other things going on. Just picked enough to eat for the next few days.








Hope you have a GREAT day today!!
