Blueberries for Sal in the Mountains of WV

family in Canaan Valley

Here I am with my brother and sister on the top of Bald Knob in Canaan Valley, West Virginia. We picked (and ate) wild blueberries as we hiked to the top. On the way up the trail we saw a fresh bear-paw print in the mud. Made me think of one of my favorite children's stories BLUEBERRIES FOR SAL by Robert McCloskey.

Also, my sister's name is Sal!
