Blueberries are sweetest when you pick them yourself

Wow, another year gone by! That's not all bad, if it means it's blueberry-picking-time again. We went with Gary and Erin to Abshier Farms again and they did not disappoint. In fact, they've improved the place. Now there are banks of beautiful wildflowers near the big grassy area where the picnic tables are located. 
But nobody comes here for wildflowers - it's all about the blueberries! As usual, I pretty much stuck to my favorite. This year the pickin' was a little slimmer - there were plenty of berries but the bushes didn't seem to be so loaded that you feared they would break, like last year. In fact, the owners said this year the pick-your-own time was just about over. No matter, there were plenty of juicy berries to fill our baskets and tummies!
