Strawberry Picking

Other than the fact that my pasty white skin has not seen the sun in 5 months........I love Spring!

I love the warmth, the flowers blooming, the smell of barbecues and newly cut grass. One of my favorite things to do in the Spring is pick strawberries. Last year we almost waited to late and did not get any so this year I started early. We picked the day they opened. We have several places to pick around here. I decided to try the same patch I am taking my class too. 

All five of us picked five big buckets full.

After picking, we couldn't resist the strawberry ice cream.

I am hoping we can go back this weekend to pick more.
