Strawberry Pickin' Time!!

Just another reason to love the lowcountry!!! Strawberry pickin' time at Boone Hall Plantation. T and T ready to go. Who would have known that their first time would have gone so smoothly?


After we explained the "you only pick the red ones"...they had it!!!





Close up of Turner!!!


Taylor takes a break from his strawberry picking to pose for a photo!


Taylor in action....


I love how this shows how comfortable they were. They would sit down and pick all the ones around them. Stand up again, look around, shout "yook (Taylor)" and continue picking!

Look at the rows of strawberries!!! 1 hour of pure entertainment, two buckets full (only about a cup of green ones), and $7 dollars later, we were off to have dinner with the Kruse family!!!


We called the boys to come and found Taylor watching his competitor, the man in the green shirt.


And caught Turner sampling the goodies. Who could blame him. I had told them on the way there that we could not eat them until they had been washed at home, but...who knew how plump, bright red and ready to eat they would be. Naturally, I too had to sample them!! Wow--those were some good strawberries!

Taylor carrying his bag to be weighed. I offered to help and he proudly said " I got it".
