Cherry picking

In an attempt to appreciate our local surroundings, we decided to take the kids to Brentwood for cherry picking.  Now, this is one of those instances when getting up at 5:30 every day is an advantage.  It allows you to get to the farms by 8am when the air is still cool and the farms are relatively empty.  Make no mistake though when I say relatively as there were people there!

The boys loved it!  They loved picking the cherries and climbing the trees.  If it wasn't for Patrick reminding us that we don't need 25 pounds of cherries they could have picked all day!  This is definitely a repeat activity for next year.  As I reap the benefits of my cheap labor.
