Schrade 881Y, which often draws my eye when I open the Schrade cigar box.

My Dad, a great Dad, who I will dearly miss this Father's Day, often used "Cotton Pickin", as in "Get your cotton pickin hands off that!".
I have never picked cotton.🧐
But I am a compulsive berry picker. We still have quarts and quarts of black raspberries in the freezer from last year, but that is not going to deter me. This year, I'll probably just look longingly at the ripe ones way back in the thick brambles because my knee is not quite ready for that, and just pick the easy to reach ones.

Other berries that are not ready yet~
Wild Elderberries:

And wild Gooseberries. The female plants bloom later, and the berries take a long time to ripen. Do not eat them until they turn dark purple/black, and pull off easily. Very sour until they're ripe.
The nastiest of the nasty thorns.

A foggy start to the day here in the City by the Bay🌫️. Nothing major on the agenda for today but keeping me company with a nod to Black Friday two ebony beauties. Have a great weekend folks! 😀
