The last couple of days have been gorgeous here, so we decided to skip out on the ever so exciting life of sitting/playing around the apartment and head to the country. This past fall we found this mom & pop orchard about 45min from Stl that is open all year round and when i called to see what was ripe the farmer told me they were going to open their blackberry patch on Wednesday. That convinced me. Missy, Evan (our neighbors) Ella and I headed out Wed. to spend the better part of the day feasting on fresh blackberries, getting our feet muddy, and breathing in some fresh air. There is just something so therapeutic about getting away from car alarms, power lines, traffic jams and city noise to be surrounded by wide open fields, blue skies and friendly, down to earth people. It was a much needed time.
