Gracie (Josh and Shelly's Subaru Legacy) decided to strand them once again Saturday evening. She's been having some intermittent technical difficulties starting lately.
Josh eventually got her started with much tinkering and seriously greasy mug, but prudence dictated we not risk a planned trip to the North Cascades to procure huckleberries. Shelly said they would explore their options and update me on Sunday.
Shelly is not one to let the grass grow underfoot, but damn, they went and bought a Subaru Outback that day! It's sweet! 2001 and looks great. So today, she and I rode up to Snoqualmie Pass to forage. A quick stop at the ranger station and we were on a mission. Found gazillions of huge huckleberries right beside the road near Windy Pass.
Picked from 9:30 to 3 and both got a couple of gallons.
Olga is busy making jam from my share and Shelly's berries will make an appearance in a pie come Thanksgiving.
SWEET!
