Rasberry Picking Date Night





About an hour away, in the foothills of the San Bernardino Mtns., is this wonderful farm owned by the Rileys. Every summer, Jonas and I visit this beautiful area known as Oak Glen, to pick rasberries. As the sun sets, each couple who signs up for the event picks their berries in the bushes at Riley's farm. Once you've sampled quite a few and filled your little basket, you head over to a table which is lit only by a candle lantern. Lazy dogs lay around on the grass and you are served a delicious dinner by ladies dressed in pioneer costumes. This year we invited friends from church, the Millers and Dodsons. P.S. The rattling noise coming from the bushes are not snakes, but sprinklers! We were a little worried...
