6/23/10 ONE OF THE JOYS...

THUNDER OVER THE LAKE
MMM......
STRAWBERRIES AT ROCKY ACRES STAND

Wednesday, 7:15 AM. Wind WNW, light. It is a bit foggy and raining, with thunder over the lake. There is another .5" of rain in the gage and the barometer predicts partly cloudy skies.
We drove through the orchard country yesterday late afternoon and stopped for fresh strawberries ($3.25 per qt.) at the Rocky Acres self-service stand. Truly delicious, we ate some out of hand, and on ice cream for desert.
The new varieties of California strawberries have been readily available and quite good, but there is nothing like vine-ripe fruit, and the seasonal availability of berries, cherries, pears and apples is one of the joys of living in Bayfield.
