blackberry jam too? sounds like a great time for all

Good Morning Jo! The 19th annual Blackberry Festival sounds like a lot of fun. Hope you have a good time.

Jo, you have blackberries creeping into your garden? That almost sounds like heaven to me - I remember picking blackberries in the woods behind my grandmother's house when I was young and she would always make the best cobbler out of them....or what was left of them :)

Thesa, of course! I use to make blackberry freezer jam - yumm!

Bill, I am going to! I love spending time down on the boardwalk! Going to get lots of pictures!

Lisa, here blackberries can be a "noxious weed"! No kidding they will take over every thing. I have had to use round-up at the root and still have them creeping through the flowers! You can stop along any highway around here at pick. I have vacant land across the street from me and they are creeping out into the street! I do love cobbler!!

Jo - I loved picking blackberries as a kid in south Seattle. It seemed like they were in every nook and cranny in the summertime. Wish they were as abundant over here.

Casey, I was born and raised in Spokane. I have memories of going to Waits Lake and then picking Huckleberries!! The Queen of all Berries IMO :)

Jo,
Sounds like a blast....oh and the blackberry pie, think you can get a scoop of ice cream with that? Yummm.
