Do you just love those days when something fun or interesting turns up that you had not planned for? Out of the blue it comes and usually begins with a phone call.
Mine went this way...
"Hey, Mom, my car's going into the shop today and I was wondering if you'd be able to pick me up and we could hang out together for the day."
You know the answer to that! My gears began turning immediately: We'd go out for breakfast and afterward we'd clean the garage. ツ
Breakfast went off without a hitch, but garage cleaning was not in my daughter's plans; a trip to Vassalboro was instead.

She wanted to purchase blueberry bushes. Hmmm...interesting...okay, I was in.

Laurel searching for her blueberry plants

| Wish that truck were ours...it would have been easier getting these plants home. |
Now that shepherd's staff has presence!
holly
limelight hydrangea

this plant stand/torchiere became Laurel's birthday gift to Michelle...
Variegated maple, which can no longer be sold as it's invasive
checking out, but we'll definitely be back another day...
All plants at Fieldstone's are native plants hardy to -40°F...very important in Maine.
Thank you for joining me on this blueberry-finding road trip.
