Cherry picking

Due to frost in the late spring and then the heavy rain, the cherries are not in the best condition this year. It is our first time picking cherry and all it meant is that we have to look harder and really hunt for those nice, ripe cherry.


After a lot of searching, W finally finds a nice cherry !

It helps if you can climb

Got some good ones!

Now please give me the bucket!
(good to see W mostly back to his happy self, other than the sore throat)
Hey, look they do come in two (just like in the Enki math story)

Hey, look who else is in the tree!

Here is daddy searching "under the dress" of a cherry tree

for some nice ripe juicy cherries
As we were paying, we learned that our favorite blueberries requires acidic soil(never thought about that when we planted) and this is not the place for that. But we can come back to pick raspberries and apples in mid August in the same place. Wouldn't that be fun?!
