cherries, cherries and more cherries

Last weekend we set out for a picnic to Brentwood, the heart of Cherry farms in western California. The cherries were in full bloom but we missed other fruits like nectarines, peaches, apricots etc. We'd have to wait atleast a month more for those to be out in full bloom for picking but we were happy to just go pick cherries. Ripe, luscious and mouth-watering cherries were sitting in large looms waiting to be picked. The kids had fun picking at the low hanging bunches and shooting them straight into their mouths while we climbed the trees to grab the large ones looming at the top.
