Top Secret

We just finished a weekend at the cabin and have discovered a top secret location for some of the best blueberries in the world! We want to share it with you.

You head up around Trappers Landing, go past the sawmill and then keep going - counting pine trees - I think it is the 4,522nd, take a left, follow the butterfly across the creek and then take a right - and count 2 potholes. Get out of the car and walk just a little over the hill and you will find blueberry paradise.

Need proof?















A few other fun photos of the picking.

And the million dollar question - what does one do with all these blue jewels? Turn the kitchen over to Chef A and Chef D to create the worlds best blueberry pie!

It was an awesome pie. Best I have ever eaten.

We also had enough to freeze - so we are going to be able to enjoy blueberry pancakes & muffins - part of the year - as we ration them throughout the year.

We have now created a new family tradition - every year - sometime between the last week of July and the first week of August - we are going to be sure to be at the cabin for Blueberry Fest.

Til next time, signing off from the end of the road.
