Berry nice morning

After a wave of heat and humidity, this morning dawned clear and very pleasant. The early summer was quite dry, which cut back on raspberry production. Each one shines like a red gem, though. Blackberries must like dry conditions, because they are coming in early. Overall this year, the forest has yielded 6 1/2 cups of raspberries, with 2 cups of blackberries. This picture shows the five cups of berries picked this a.m.
