Summer raspberry fun

Yes, I'm back from the journeys that have kept me busy this year. Life is settling down again and I have some photos to share.

On our recent trip to the Pacific Northwest to help take care of mother's house, I got to go raspberry picking at a U-Pick Farm. That brought back lots of memories. Oh, to have all the vine-ripened berries one wants! What a treasure! Thanks to Keren and Angelina for planning to make raspberry jam.

It's always more fun with others. Angelina and Carolyn were picking.

And can you guess if this one is going into Carolyn's box or her mouth? She enjoyed lots of raspberries.

Even Blake was a big help - or at least his stroller was!

I scored big time when Keren and Angelina sent fresh raspberry jam home with me! Thanks everyone for an enjoyable time in the berry fields again and yummy jam!
