Foggy day. Cool and foggy. Met some nice visitors on the hill today—including two friendly little girls who quickly became fast friends with Jack—and saw a few birds. Heard a few more. And at the end of it all, we ended up with some of the very first 2015 Beech Hill blueberry harvest.
Perfect timing.
