Yesterday we hiked up to the top of the property following the creek… As well as we could.  We didn’t bring anything to berry pick but we sure ate a lot along the way.  The mountain is covered in huckleberry and blueberry bushes!  I had to work on the paper so Barry went back up today with 2 ice cream pales in a back pack… 4 hours later he came home with them both full!  Wow, they were heavy too!  I already had the stove on so the first 4 cups he cleaned went directly into the oven for dessert!  Yum!  I will make a batch of jam and the rest we will freeze.  We think we have about 32 cups in this first harvest.  We have about a month of picking, we will keep going out until they are done and have lots for the winter!  Yahoooo!    As you can see Donn and Mini were both trying to help.
