Berry Picking

Saturday I took Duma up Case Camp to the Parkway:

When we turned around at the top and headed back down Case Camp to 475B and then went across the road to the wildlife road:

The trail was lined with Blackberries and I let Duma roam while I picked for awhile:

When we got to this sign I decided not to pick anymore berries:

We connected the end of the road to the start and made a loop out of it.

Sunday Terri, Duma and myself all headed up to Black Balsam to go blueberry picking. It is still early but I had a hunch there might be a few. We headed out Ivestor Gap and ignored all the early side trails. I kept telling Terri I knew just the spot. That spot, of course, is the Fork Mountain trail. It is hard to spot I had a feeling there would be berries there. After a little investigating we headed down the trail and had a nice lunch before we started picking. They were everywhere:

We picked and picked.

Then we picked no more and headed down the road.
