Heat index 117 I think I need suspenders for my balls!!

[Dalmatian90]

Got a big order for hand picked berries, so the crew and I have been out in it for the last three days.

I was out at a pick-your-own blueberries last Sunday...for some reason as I was taking a break in the shade by some of the taller plants I thought "Hey Dingeryote does blueberries...I wonder if they hand pick them?"

I know I'm not as efficient as a Mexican, but day-um there's some serious labor involved in picking blueberries compared to the amount of fruit you get. Fine for gardeners, I shudder at the thought doing it commercial scale!

He said "we'd #####", It's a PNW thing - you wouldn't understand.

Hey, now - I may currently be in Illinois (a combination of two words - ill, as in sick, and noise, as in Chicago), but I'm from Montana originally. I got a degree from WSU, and spent a year in Everett. Liked the Evergreen State, and I still root for the Cougs, and think back with fondness to my days with the National Guard going out to the Yakima Firing Center once a month.

The only word I can think of is 'berry', but I don't know why that would be blanked out.

Ah, I see now. I guess that would explain my stones grinding against each other so hard while I was working in a tulip tree yesterday. I mentioned to my neighbor/customer that these saddles must be made for men with smaller nuts than me!

yeah.. truthfully I did not know what he might have meant either. I do know growing up here that what we would do is get pissed off at the crap weather we were having and long for the season some folks call 'summer'.

I certainly didn't care for life on the West side of the mountains. 9 months of drizzle was not worth the three months of gorgeous summer. Here in Southern IL, we have a Seattle-like winter (but a bit more snow), a nasty hot and humid summer, but Spring and Fall are wonderful - a lot like a PNW summer. Montana, however, has the best of it all. Nice cold and snowy winter, nice summer, awesome spring and fall. Not a lot of color there, but at least you get sunshine all the time.
