Simple summer joys

Picking blackberries is definitely high on my list of simple summer joys. I can't wait until they start popping up! My mom made tons of blackberry jam last year, and our family even has a special blackberry picker pole we use to grab those out-of-reach branches. We don't mess around!

P.s. My friends formed this band Foxtail a while ago. This song they made is perfect for summer afternoons driving on a curvy road with the windows down. :)
