A Weekend In Manson
Stop 1 - Blueberry Hills: Our first stop was at Blueberry Hills to eat breakfast & pick blueberries. We ended up picking 6 buckets worth weighing in at a total of 36 pounds. In case you're wondering, the large haul cost a total of $90!
Stop 2 - Cherry Orchards: Ryan's uncles told us that many of the cherry orchards had been damaged due to hail. Because of the damage, they weren't going to be able to harvest the cherries and just had to let them drop to the ground. We couldn't bear to see all of those cherries go to waste so we ran over and picked boxes & boxes full. While we picked Milo ran through the trees looking for dandelions and Cooley chowed down on cherries until his skin was dyed red.
Stop 3 - Swimming: After picking cherries we went over to Ryan's Uncle Doug's house to swim. Maeli quickly became best friends (or "BFF's" as they called each other) with their granddaughter and they spent the entire afternoon swimming & playing.
Stop 4 - Helicopter Ride: We ended the day with a helicopter ride from Ryan's Uncle Dale. Milo got to ride in the front seat and laughed and yelled as we rode around. He felt especially cool getting to wear the headset.
After the ride we dropped by Dale's house to get some ice cream from his backyard ice cream machine. It was pretty much the perfect end to a pretty close to perfect day.
