Our last 4-wheeling trip with all the kids in AL...

Searching for Dewberries and Blackberries...


We went out on this very hot evening after dinner to have a last 4-wheeling trip all together and to do some black berry picking. We have long pants on for a couple of reasons - because the engine of the 4-wheeler gets hot in between the legs and can burn the skin on longer trips and because there are a lot of prickers on blackberry bushes and on the weeds around the bushes. The Kudzu in the South takes over everything. Kudzu is not prickly, but it makes it challenging to find the blackberries sometimes as it grows quickly and covers everything in the summer.
