What I *LONG* for are the blackberries of home -- there was this hillside
about a block from the house, steady supply of water from the leaky don't
know how many decades old pipe that took the dregs of Fall River across
the Pit River valley to water the Knoch (pronounced Nox) fields. South
east exposure.

Those were the ONERIEST brambles ever (positively carniverous). 
You dressed for rattlesnake when you went picking -- leather gloves, long
pants, long sleeves, boots....
But I have NEVER had berries so huge and so sweet.

*sigh*

ALMOST worth going back for.

Maybe some day.

wistful, tygress
