Blackberry Pickin'

SuicideFO · Jul 30, 2009

Me and the son went out walking in the woods and came upon some good blackberries. We found some huge ones.

Crab Apple tree

I know it's not an RC, but it makes me want a RC-6 bad. It's a RAK Recurve by Justin at Ranger Knives. Pretty much the same specs. It's seen alot of abuse. But comparing its 1095 to my Izula and RC-3 1095...I think the RC-6 will come out ahead.

Excellent pics! You just gave me another idea for a father-son activity.
Those arent mulberries though, they're blackberries.

Oh yea, that sucker was 30 feet tall with a 8" diameter trunk.

We could only reach the berries on the lowest branches.

I think it was just a bush run amuck.

Ooh lovely looking blackberries!

I guess I'll be waiting another month before they're ready where I live.

Hmmmmm......makes me think of buttery-rich, hot, ooey-gooey blackberry cobbler with cool, refreshing, vanilla bean ice cream on top.

Yes I know

I think I definetly learned my lesson.

We ate the blueberries on the spot. Didn't bring anything to put them in to carry them home.

And Yes I wore my Crocs. I wear them everywhere.

Those blackberries remind me of my Grandma's farm. Big blackberry patches all over it. As kids we used to pick pales of them. Used to eat blackberries for breakfeast in a bowl with milk and sugar on them, just like cereal. Wow I miss those times.... Don't miss the chigars or thorns that much...

Great brain food. I love me some blackberries

SuicideFO,

That's great you and your son stumbled upon a blackberry patch and some crab apples too. I missed all of the blackberry season and most of the red raspberries picking down here in PA. I did manage to pick about half a quart of the red raspberries though. Dehydrated them and added them to my fall archery season trail mix....yummy!

Great Photos,

Bob
