Round Two of the Blue

Friday evening. Straight from work.

One hour. Two quarts.

Solitude. Peace and quiet.

Leaves heavy with rain drops from an earlier rain.

Totally soaked me during picking because I was constantly squatting and ducking under and into the wet bushes.

Great leg workout with all the squatting. ;)

Figured out that U-Pick prices are almost half those of ready-picked for blueberries.




Leaves are like a canopy to all the ripe fruit hiding beneath. Love this pic with the sunlight shining through.

Can see a bunch of green buds just waiting to ripen in this heat and rain.

Happiness.

Hello, goat. :)

Steve (farm owner) insisted I try a little, yellow plum after I asked if they tasted different than purple ones. He pulled and washed one for me right there in the store. Delicious. Took home a pint container of these babies too. About eight small plums.

{Sorry for the blur. Took the small cam tonight.}

Only about a week left of blueberries. Definitely want to go back!
