Mini (Max) Trip To GA

All set to go.

Up early to hit the fields to get our Blueberry picking on.


Bees they had brought in for pollinating.

Picking berries wears a fella out.




We ended up with around 9+ gallons of berries plus probably an additional 1/2 gallon in my belly.

We did some plinking while the MM got up to temp.

Prepping steak and used Holy Cow rub for the first time.

Searing one of em up getting a crust. Apologies but, no plated shots.

Looks like a great time and some great food brother Husker. I especially like the time delay of you picking berries above. You looked real "serious" there for a moment. And as always, glad to see that Pelican on back instead of a.......well you know

The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -

Looks like a great time. Where in GA?Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

Thanks y'all!
@RRP picking fresh didn't end up with Papa Smurf fingers. I'm guessing only if the berries were overripe would that happen.
@SmokeyPitt Broxton area. Here's some Orange Blossom Honey they hooked me up with.
