Canadian Geese



Today, Dad had to go to bring a screen to the camp offices which is about 1 1/2- 2 hours away. Mom of course wanted to see the ocean. So as soon as we were done there, he drove us to see the salty waves crash against the rocks. Now we are no where near Canada, as most of you know, but there is one thing of theirs that is very popular here... Canadian Geese. They are EVERYWHERE!!! They even have a chain gas station named after them called "WaWa". We were driving when all of a sudden there are all these cars stopped, when we finally see what all the comotion was about. The geese were in the road. Tons of them just scattered everywhere. We got so close to them that you could actually reach your hand out the window and touch them. They wouldn't budge either. That everything was all about them, so Dad wound up driving around everybody.


That's not all. Yesterday mom and I went blueberry picking and oh boy!!!!!! THESE THINGS ARE HUGE!! They are no doubt about it, larger than grapes. I am dead serious. And they taste AH-MAYZING. The owners gave you buckets, (big ones) that you would tie around your waste and pick as many as you want. They were sold by the pound. We Goodwins now have WAY too many blueberries, so we froze most of them and are going to try to eat as much as we can, and maybe give some to Gene and Maggie at the office :) Haha!! Look how big these are!!
