After shooting the Thurston wedding Mom, Dad, and I headed to West Mountain to pick HUCKLEBERRIES! Berry picking is one of my VERY favorite summer traditions. Absolutely nothing compares to the taste of fresh huckleberries! I love how Mom finds a patch for us to pick. She sticks her head out the window and SNIFFS! She can SMELL a patch before she can see the actual berries! I am usually a berry pickin' maniac! Traditionally I refuse to eat a single berry until we are finished picking--that way I am focused on harvesting as many berries as possible! This year I decided to stop and sample the berries first! Yummy! I waited until I had a belly full before dropping a single berry into my bucket! It was absolutely wonderful! I still managed to pick a good number of berries, I just decided to enjoy the experience of actually being in a huckleberry patch first! I LOVE sitting in the woods, sunshine filtering through the trees, picking berries and conversing with the people I love the most! I am convinced there are huckleberries in HEAVEN!
