For this year’s 4th of July we had a rather good day, with family and just with each other. We started the morning picking blueberries in Dallas, Georgia. Katie, her sister, Elizabeth Flowers, and her sister-in-law, Maggie Bergen picked quite a few blueberries on these bushes that Maggie has growing at their home. Later that morning I went out to pick some and to add a few blackberries while at it.
The neat thing about this is that these blueberries are completely organic. During the whole year, Maggie allows these to grow naturally with no pesticides. When we go to shop at Whole Foods or Harry’s Farmers Market we find the quality of these blueberries are nice, however to be able to enjoy the very blueberries that we pick that are of the same quality of the organic blueberries at these fine markets is fulfilling.
Later that day we left to go home and spend some time with each other, since our week has been really busy lately. We need and value that husband and wife time together. We had dinner together and then went up to the roof to see fireworks from Centennial Olympic Park. From our rooftop we could see along the horizon, fireworks from Lenox Mall, Hifi Buys amphitheater, and Turner Field.
We hope you all had a wonderful 4th celebrating our country as well.
