Lucy usually accompanies me, but she can keep a secret.
Even though she's mostly blind, she still seems to be able to flounder around in the muskeg and have a good time. I think she even figured out how to pick Lingonberries herself.
She does have a tendency to just wander off, so today I attached a bell to her collar to keep better track of her whereabouts.
Carolyn also joined me today.......berry picking is more fun when you take a friend!
This year we're noticing a definite trend.....there are hardly any Bog Cranberries but there are lots of Lingonberries....
....and they are larger than normal. I wonder if other pickers are finding the same thing?
We each ended up with about 3 cups of berries after about 2 hours of picking, and Lucy was muddy and panting from all of her exercise.
So everyone's happy!
