Pickin' Berries

.

It is berry picking time. It makes for a long day. At work from 9 to 5 and then picking berries for a few hours after. Doesn't leave much time for blogging. I have to admit that I am probably the slowest berry picker ever. People are mostly picking blueberries right now but I got lucky and found a patch of ripe aqpiks (cloudberries). Didn't pick any today though...too rainy. Hopefully tomorrow the weather will be better.

Thank you for always providing us with so great pix and intresting posts! Always follow your blog!!!
We have lots of fireweed here, which we don't use and no cloudberries - unfortunately - in Norway we had some! Our blueberries are rare this summer; almost none....so treasure yours!
They look gorgeous!!!!
