Oh Say Can You See

In what has become a grand Fourth of July tradition, and in honor of Anna's upcoming start in the blueberry room at Huckleberry Cheesecake, we started our "Festive Fourth" by making the trek out to Butler's Orchard in Germantown, MD.

We managed to pick about 25 pounds of blueberries and tart cherries in a little over an hour. Lowell's girlfriend Komal managed to survive her first encounter with our gang (congrats my dear!). Anna managed to sleep through the entire outing, snug as a bug (or the bugs that were crawling up my legs) in her sling.

Hope you're having a wonderful holiday "celebrating America" as Lily's been saying all day. Happy Fourth!








PS -- I promise more frequent blog postings next week. SO much to tell you about...too busy of a week to get to the computer before now. Although, sadly, you should get used to more infrequent postings...preview of coming attractions once I go back to work.
