Papa’s blueberries were picked fresh by me, Beth, Monday morning. A small basket still remained and was given to the owner of a huckleberry gift shop just outside Glacier National Park in Montana. Jim Willows, the owner of Willows Huckland, promptly threw them onto his breakfast and said he was impressed by the taste of the Chandler blueberries.

Today, Hank and Tim were splitting wood at the farm. Once split, they package the wood and deliver it bundled to the Lake Comanche Resort. These photos were enhanced using an iPad app called Paper Camera. The result is quite beautiful. Our next post will show more photos of the farm using this technique.

Here’s a view of the farm in April. Papa Hank was busy working in the berry patch, weeding away. The strawberry patch was looking good as were the beautiful golden raspberry plants and the seedlings in the greenhouse.
