Busy Weekend Plans…Off the Grid

Don’t these look fantastic? I’ve been worried I wouldn’t get to see these for myself this season, but it looks like we’re finally getting a chance to get to The Farm this weekend.

And the very good news is that there remains and abundance of green berries that should be turning red in the next few days.

That means plenty of plump, ripe strawberries for me, the iFarmer and the kids to pick.

Hoosier Outsider tells me that he sold 26 quarts of strawberries by the roadside today. That’s a heck of a lot of smoothies.

Now if we can get in some camping time, that would be a bonus. So far though all planned camping trips have ended up in downpours. Hopefully we’ll at least get a summer campfire complete with s’mores.

We’re also looking forward to visiting family, seeing how big those broilers are getting and checking on the progress of the corn. And I plan to find some rhubarb and bake it up with some strawberries.

I was asked today if I get cell service at The Farm. Yes. But our Internet connection is limited to dial-up, so happily, I plan to park my laptop for the weekend.
