1st Ya-Ya Day Just 'Cause

Glenice was appointed the day's activities director, and this is what we did.

1. We picked organic blueberries at a farm in Ford. They went up a dollar to $3 per pound, but it was a beautiful day, and we had fun eating and picking. Glenice especially did. She got full on them and even beaned me (Cyndi) in the head with some. =)
2. Glenice helped Dave Bear (sp?) plant a humongous garden, and we got to harvest whatever was ripe. We made a haul of beans, basil, potatoes, corn, rainbow chard, carrots, zucchini, peppers, and eggplant.
3. Lunch at The Tin Cup on Charles Road. Kymm Moe works there, but wasn't there today. Cheryl had a smoothie, Tina a cup of tomato soup, Rosie a chicken wrap, and I had a French dip. It was one of the worst sandwiches I've ever had. Glenice was still full from the morning blueberries and then the watermelon in the garden.
4. Centennial Trail.  This was a first for me and maybe Cheryl too. We asked a fellow pedestrian to take our picture, which is the one of us on the bridge at the end of this post. We stopped and took in the water just next to that bridge. There were hundreds of tiny fish darting around in the shallows. It was a very warm day, so A) I should have brought my water bottle, and B) We couldn't leave the produce in the car for too long.
5. Back to Tina's to divvy up the garden stuff.

What a great first try at this getting together once a month! Nothing is planned for September yet, but hopefully, we'll have as sweet a time as we did today. I'd love to host a hike at my place when the trees are changing color. Maybe I'll dibs October. =)
