Chelan week day 4

We usually go to Blueberry Hills for breakfast but had never picked the blueberries...until today! It was so fun to go through the bushes and pick out which ones we wanted. We did learn that Mary was right about it getting hot so if you go plan an early outing. I think the ripening berries are so pretty, all those colors of blueish purple...love it






Between all of us we had about 4 pounds of blueberries, this is 1/4 of that






Of course we couldn't leave without enjoying breakfast. At Blueberry Hills you order just after the door, find a table, and then they bring your food to you...we sat out on the deck which overlooks the bushes
Above you can see our patio, this isn't the room the Garguile's get normally because they're remodeling that building and they're a little behind schedule.
After getting back it was swimming and cards for hours





Just before dinner all the adults headed to Nefarious for a quick wine tasting, they have a large vineyard around the property which is up on a hill giving you this lovely view of the lake
For dinner we hit up a new mexican place in town that turned out to be more mex-american that we expected. The salsa was fantastic, hot and sweet with apples in it!
The youngins made the walk to a burger place since they weren't craving salsa and came back with TWO enormous buckets of fries...notice Jared snarfing down on his in the picture above.




The food was settled by this point so we jumped back into the hot tub. This thing is huge here, it's really like 3 hot tubs put together in a clover pattern
There is sunset number 2, happened while we were enjoying the jets on our backs while soaking up some clorine
And what a better way to finish the day off than a sunday with cherries on top made by Dominic
