With the fourth looming ever closer I realize two things, Life flies by faster and faster as we age and I am so glad to be alive and have the freedom to choose my path.
It is absolutely glorious out this morning. I have been up for a few hours already. I did a little cleaning up outside and got a good start on my morning coffee. As soon as my son TJ and his wife Kendra arrive we will be heading out to dad and Dianne's place on the canal for an afternoon barbecue. Me I would love to run out to the foothills this morning to see if the blackberries are ripe yet. I know they must be as I usually try and celebrate the fourth by picking wild blackberries. It does kind of sound like work but I tell ya if I can whip up a blackberry pie in the middle of winter it is well worth it. Convincing my family that blackberry picking is fun is another thing. I love to be outside and the more remote the better I think my daughter has inherited this gene but my hubby can be a bit of a stick about it sometimes. Ahh well Love him as he is :)
Enjoy your day~
