Blueberry picking

It was too nice a day to be in cubicle hell. I took the day off and headed up to Lake George with Howie. We did a loop hike over Pilot Knob. Howie has seemed to recover from his close encounter with the porcupine just fine. The only wildlife he encountered today were chipmunks. On the way up, I passed a couple picking blueberries (huckleberries), which were plentiful. I stopped further up the path in a sunny, open spot and picked my own. Meanwhile, Howie napped under the shade of a small tree. We made it the grassy sub-peak and then headed back down.
