The Berry Patch



The raspberries are thriving this year, and the 10-year old blueberry bush is a new addition to the 'berry patch'. The lush green bushes make a nice screen between the new garden shed and the fenced backyard of the house.


I'll be getting my berry boxes out this evening (old wooden ones like I had when I was a child) so I can start picking the raspberries for jam, pies, and home-made raspberry viniagrette dressing for summer salads. "Raspberry Time" denotes mid-summer, warm and sunny weather, and hours spent reading a book in a shady part of the yard.
