I’ve just come out to the deck in 29c to enjoy a bowl of organic BC bing cherries. I am immediately transported back decades to a family trip to the Okanagan- Mom and Dad’s Grand Beach Winnipeg upbringing influenced the decision to travel west so their kids could experience a proper beach. Exploring the courtyard back of the Motel while adults were adulting, I was thrilled to find big, fresh, juicy cherries just begging to be picked. It was a miraculous discovery for a child coming from a northern city with cruel winters in Alberta.
