We went in search of red huckleberries. There were exactly zero. Plus it was kind of rainy and cool for this time of year. But here's the thing. If you go with a happy heart, because it's just good to finally have a day together again,
and you don't worry about not finding what you set out to find, but realize that perhaps you'll find something else like a few Chanterelles and puff balls,
and you bring along a funny little fern-jumper to make you laugh,
and you go out in your own field when you get home to fill buckets with fat blackberries, then it's all good. It's all
great.
Then Possum grabs my camera cord and says "That's plenty of pictures. Now go make some cobbler."
