A Whole Lot of Blueberries

A Whole Lot of Blueberries

The lady across the lake from me has a fantastic blueberry patch.  She told me she's already picked over 4600 lbs of blueberries.  Think about it.  That's a lot of blueberries.  We went over last week to pick.  My family did all the work.
I took a lot of great pictures.


Every bush was just loaded.  We brought home 20 lbs.  Washed them, and put them in the refrigerator.  Everytime I walk by, I grab a handful. Gotta go pick some more.

BTW, for those of you keeping up with my flying, I thought it was time to come down to earth for a while.  Last Thursday, my instructor opened the plane door at an altitude of 3000 ft.  After the initial panic and shock, even though, it would only open a little, he said, he did it so I'd realize it's no big deal. He also said it can happen, and would rather it happen with him in the plane.

 I knew if that had happened to me during a solo flight. I would have thought it was a dire emergency, and I'd have to make an emergency landing into some field. Then,  he actually asked me if I wanted to open my door.  NO, I don't think so.  Now I know what to expect, but I still feel more comfortable with my feet on the floor....on the ground.
