Vacations are a time that I love to spend with my family doing things that we don’t normally have time for with the busyness of school and work that predominates throughout much of the year. 今年夏天，betway旗舰版下载花了几个星期的时间在密歇根州看望我的大女儿和她的家人. 在计划betway旗舰版下载的旅行时, we list what we want to do and number one on the list for our summer adventures was going to a farm and picking our own 草莓和樱桃.

于是，在一个阳光明媚的星期二早晨，betway旗舰版下载沿着一条乡间小路去参观 Kiteley农场 准备采摘草莓了. 

我必须承认我从来没有摘过草莓, 除了在我自己的花园里, 迫不及待地想亲身体验一下收获它们的过程. 最初, my 15-year-old son couldn’t figure out why we were going to pick them when it was easier to buy them in the supermarket. 但是，我告诉他等着瞧——我答应他以后会改变主意的.

betway旗舰版下载接到指示，知道草莓地的位置，然后拿起betway旗舰版下载的盒子, 准备用糖果填满它们, 美味的草莓.

农场的入口两侧是蓝色的金银花和橙色的金银花.

草莓地非常大，betway旗舰版下载都开始了, 在树叶下寻找鲜红的果实.

It’s no surprise that the strawberries that you buy at the store are often large and not particularly sweet, 是什么帮助他们在运送到商店时不会受伤. 然而，在自己采摘的农场里，浆果更小，而且非常甜. 

我的孙女莉莉一开始就喜欢摘草莓.

The edge of the field was shaded by tall trees and we discovered that the berries were larger in this part of the field.

要找到最好的浆果，关键是要看那些最不成熟的浆果.

大约一个小时后，betway旗舰版下载吃了11磅草莓. 对于业余草莓采摘者来说，这已经不错了.

接下来，是摘樱桃的时候了. Michigan has a large percentage of the cherry growing market and because cherries don’t grow in my neck of the woods, 每当我在7月来访的时候，我总是利用这个机会来采摘它们.

T在这里 are several farms w在这里 you can go and pick your own cherries and all you have to pay for is the fruit you pick.

树上挂满了鲜红的樱桃, 哪个比草莓更容易采摘，因为betway旗舰版下载不需要弯腰.

莉莉摘樱桃和摘草莓一样在行.

在忙碌的早晨结束的时候, betway旗舰版下载有很多水果，我很兴奋地把它们带回去，用它们做甜食.

对我来说，那天早上最开心的事是我儿子说:“这太有趣了。. betway旗舰版下载需要明年再来一次.” 

它们看起来很好吃? 和完美的……
