Best to come by in spring and summer for the berries. They are the 
remaining few strains from a small 5 acre farm my folks and grandfolks 
once had. They are a gourmet variety. But we always have freezer jam 
year round, how appropriate for us eh?

We all enjoyed the visit but it was far too brief! ;) John was keen to 
see Mt. St Helens, practically in our backyard, but still a days drive 
to see enough for a good experience.

I'm usually always here if not away seeing a doctor or a movie.

James
