Blueberries

Some friends of ours from church have blueberry bushes beside their house that are old and well established. The bushes regularly produce lots of berries. This year the area got a lot of rain just as the berries ripened so our friends told everyone to come pick blueberries before they spoil from all the rain (I think it causes the berry to split after absorbing too much water).

So we went by today around 10:00 AM and picked a bunch of berries. They girls had a good time, MD ate almost as many as she picked, and CE joined in once she saw what MD was doing. Once the bucket was full, they were happy to keep on picking, and just eat what they picked!

This past weekend was the Blueberry Festival. MD and I stayed longer to wait for the band to start playing. The morning rain showers had delayed everything. But they finally got started and we were able to listen to a few songs. MD liked their rendition of “Carolina Girl.”
