On The Way Home

I had wanted all week to go to a pick your own strawberry patch--but the weather and distance was against us.

I saw the sign for one after we got off Afton Mountain heading towards Lynchburg, and I decided we would stop on the way back.

Gracie and I had lots of fun picking the berries, Thomas was not as thrilled. I believe he cried the entire time from the Snuggly I had him attached to me in. But, we didn't let that stop us.

Gracie got about a third of her box full (and her clothes completely stained with berry juice!) before we headed back to weigh in.

At 1.49 a pound I wish I had gotten more, but as I mentioned Thomas was screaming and it was very hot. Hopefully we can find one closer to home and do it again.

Of course I had to wash off a few for Gracie to eat in the car (thank goddness for leather seats that wipe off!) and we drove the rest home to share with daddy.
