Pendaries and Salmon Raspberry Ranch, October 2010

We took a family vacation to Jeff and Alli's cabin in Pendaries. Scott and I were going to go up alone and play golf, but decided at the last minute to take Logan, Olive and Bunsen with us. We didn't play any golf, however we took a lot of walks on the golf course and then went to the Salmon Raspberry Ranch. On one of our walks, Logan found a golf ball...that was in plain site (I am not sure how the person who lost it didn't see it), however he and Scott washed it in the golf ball cleaner and dried it off. As we continued to walk, every time we came across a golf ball cleaner, Logan insisted on washing his ball! On our last day at the cabin on our way home, we took a 15 minute detour and drove up to the Raspberry Ranch where we had a great time. The raspberry bushes are the perfect size for little ones to pick at (even dogs too) and Logan and Olive had a great time eating raspberries. The raspberries were Olive's first real food (other than Gerber Puffs) and she did great! They were very ripe and perfect for her! I just had to be careful not to give her too many so she wouldn't get a tummy ache. After picking raspberries, we went to the little cafe and Logan had a PB&J (raspberry of course) sandwhich. We then all enjoyed a raspberry sundae and then headed back home! It was a great little trip and I can't wait until next year when Olive will get to help pick the berries and not just eat them!
