What's better than...

[Mrleft8]

Raspberries straight off the cane, warmed by the sun?
A close second is the 1/3 of the berries picked, that actually make it into the house, with chocolate ice cream....

[Chris Coose]

Watching the face of a good friend as he dipped Clams dug on Bangs Is. in melted butter, steamed over a wood fire in salt water and eating them.

He exclaimed they were, without a doubt, the best taste he'd ever had from the ocean. Said it again the next week when I happened upon him.

I agreed, though I have experienced the taste on a number of occasions.

the wind's on her quarter she's making about 6 knots all the way up to the head of the bay , as the sun drops we send the speed boat in tow , back to McCallum , he'll catch up

four lobsters hauled in by two old fishermen for 20 bucks , boiled in an enamel pot filled with brackish water

hoisting a homebrewed porter and recalling how the day passed

lobster that ya just got by going over the side and dropping them in the bag backwards, then going topsides and dropping them in a pot of boiling sea water.....fresh made conch fritters....lobster bisque fer breakfast over sourdough bread(toast) and a cuppa fresh brewed kona...

[uncas]

lobster is good.

Now raspberries. My old golden loved them. I never tired of watching him in a patch, drawing his lips back and gently picking off a berry off a shoot one at a time..
As far as the ice cream, he wasn't that interested.. Liked them berries plain, and fresh off the vine.

Popeye's will be difficult to surpass. It lacks only a couple of ears of fresh corn dripping with butter.

Added: Actually, they all sound fabulous.

Blackberries off the old family homestead just outside Molalla, Oregon.

Daddy sold his portion of the property back in the 90's, but Aunt Jean and I took a little walk down memory lane.

The first pictures are of Wilhoit Springs, which is on the back of my great grandmother/ father's property. The other pictures are a pretty little hill and springs on what was the family property.

Yes, I checked the listing - $275k! NOT exactly what daddy sold it for.... :eek:

A quiet night at camp, mid week, middle of winter, a few inches of new snow on the ground, travel into camp by dog sled under the light of a full moon, a thick venison steak cooked on the wood stove.

[paladin]

or half a small drum with a grate and charcoal.....and half a caribou across the coals, and the wolf pack sitting just outside the fire light range....waiting......splash of olive oil and ground pepper....and a bottle of Bacardi stuck in the snow....and another bottle of 190 proof bacardi sitting on the front seat of the aircraft,the only way to restart the cold engine.....
