Blueberries!

Today we drove out to Larry's Berries for U-Pick blueberries. We started out planning to pick five pounds, but when we took our berries back for weighing we found we actually had eight pounds. Ken says you can never have too many blueberries. The farm plants four varieties; the ones we picked are Nelson. They were easy to pick and are delicious.


When we had our berries weighed, we saw this lovely chicken and a few more running around underfoot. The chicken is a Cochin, originally from China, and apparently good as pets.


Afterwards we went to Cooper Reservoir to walk.


This cute little frog was in the restroom when rescued by a lady who took it outside. She had to go back to work, so I carried the beautiful little creature down to the lake shore.


Back at home, one of our neighbors stopped by to invite us to a 3:00 p.m. happy hour. It turned out that one of the attendees was celebrating a birthday, so we sang Happy Birthday and had some red velvet cake and ice cream.
