I spent much of my toldler years picking and eating them.

My grandparents had a summer house there on top of a hill covered with blueberry bushes..so nice. <br /><br />Is Ellenville in the Catskills? My friends the Beans are in a play there with Paula Prentiss, except she's very ill and a stand in had to open for her (shhh)<br /><br />I loved this piece..thanks!Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15989573357446569262noreply@blogger.com
