Fotos - Cranberry Harvest

Kris and I had the opportunity to visit an early season cranberry harvest.  The berries were "early black" cranberries.  The day was beautiful.  Other than the owners and workers, we had the cranberry bog to ourselves. 

Here are some of the pictures we took today.

How many berries in the picture?  You didn't really think that I was going to count them, did you?
