Last year we missed them with a bout of Poison Ivy. This year, we are having better luck. ( so far) I was a huge berry picker when I was a kid.... it seems I still have not grown out of it.

There were only about five houses on our rural gravel<br />circle drive and the edge was full of them. Now with thirty some houses and a blacktop road we're more like suburbia. No woods and no raspberry bushes left...:( troutbirderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087811292280881959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-32385527500401376262017-07-12T19:12:21.610-05:002017-07-12T19:12:21.610-05:00Our raspberries are just starting too.
