A Non-RS activity Invitation

Many of you know Nadine Bailey (now in the South Bend Ward), and many of you new sisters don't. However, she has invited all who would like to participate to the following activity, so with her permission, I'm passing along the invite. This would be a great opportunity for those of you who are new, or even for those who maybe haven't done the following yet, to do so, and in the process make new friends:

Hello Friends!

Bright and early the morning of Monday, July 2, weather permitting, I am going to go to the Blueberry Ranch, an organic u-pick blueberry farm where you can pick your own blueberries (or purchase pre-picked ones). The cost is $1.85/lb (which is about 1/3 the price of buying them in the store!) It took me and four younger ones about 2 hours to pick 22 lbs of blueberries (and remember the 2-year-old and the 4-year-old ate MANY more than they picked!) It is supposed to be hot again on Monday (high of 93!) so I wanted to get out to the ranch early... so I will meet you there at 8:15 a.m.

The address and contact information for the ranch is:

54743 Buckeye Road, Mishawaka, IN 46545
Phone:(574)255-5773

Oh, and some ideas for using those blueberries? Many of my friends love to freeze them. I love to make jam, fruit leather, and eat them fresh. (I, Lorraine, love to freeze them and bananas, and make fruit smoothies with them).

Also, I do plan to have a beach trip this week, most likely on Friday, July 6th. This will be my last beach trip for a few weeks as I'm heading out of town. But, don't let that stop you! If you want directions to my favorite place, Silver Beach, send me an email (nrbailey@sbcglobal.net).

Please feel free to invite others and bring them along!

Love,
Nadine
