You see, blackberry bushes grow wild here. Apparently they're also a "weed" in the sense that they grow uncontrollably and are a pain to remove. So last summer when I visited Aaron, we saw blakcberry bushes on the side of the road and I decided I wanted NOTHING MORE than to pick berries!
Aaron and I went to Thousand Acres Dog Park with the pups to take them for a little walk and let them play in the river. During our walk, we found berries!
... and ate them. I don't care if they're dirty. I want blackberries, darnit.
On our way home, Aaron noticed a sign that said "U-Pick - OPEN"
STOP THE CAR!!!!!!!!!
...we're berry huntin' :-)
So we picked berries! We filled an entire coffee can with the best tasting blueberries EVER!
I feel satisfied :-)
