Mmmm...strawberries.

On top of the hill near my parents house (well, maybe a mile or so away, but not far) they cleared a strip through the hills for the phone / power lines to go through. Miles and miles and miles of 'em. They also sprayed something to keep trees away from the lines. Well...it kept trees from growing for awhile, but wild strawberries just took over like crazy! We used to go up there and just gorge on the things.

Never made it back with enough to make anything. Oops...

Blackberries grow EVERYWHERE in the area I grew up. My grandparents had 7 acres along a creek. We'd pick the berries in mid to late August for homemade blackberry ice cream. OMG, it's good. Had to pick about twice as much as needed, due to the eating of the vine effect.
