Huckleberry Find
The forecast is for a smokin’ hot afternoon.
Whatcha gonna do?Go up in elevation and pick huckleberries, that’s what.
After a morning of worship and a picnic lunch,
our friends Matt and Carol (with their newbie son Isaac)
shared their secret spot with a few friends.
Generous folks.
Anyone who brings a huckleberry pie to a potluck
is generous beyond the beyonds.
Huckleberries are very small and don’t grow in clusters.
It took Curt and I all afternoon to pick one gallon.
Tip of the day: Huckleberries have so much flavor,
you can mix them with blueberries in recipes to stretch them.
Caught red-handed!
