Blueberries anyone?

After having so much fun picking strawberries, blueberries would be the next thing.  Bobby was in for the weekend and wanted to go see Grampa's cabin.  Mckee was all for it and was ready to go!  There were blueberry bushes up there maybe we can get some.  After seeing the Loc Ness Monster and now it's young, we soon arrived at the camp.  There were cries from the back seat, "Stop Grandpa, look at the berries."  Wait till we get to the cabin.  Oh no, we have no bag but there was one at the cabin. 

We started up  the trail and there were lots of bushes loaded with berries.  We should go home with plenty, if they stop eating them.  I got to hold the bag open for the ones they decided to give me.  I helped at times.  Then we went near the stream and wow there were a lot but on the top of the bushes.  The bears ate the lower ones.  Bobby being the tallest, was able to get a lot.  I started calling them my migrant workers because they were following my directions - yea right.  Just walking the path we got a lot of berries.  Should have enough to make jam.  We packed up and went home.  Suddenly we changed from jam to pie.  Of course my little chef helped make the pie. 

And a fun time was had by all.
