Across the river to the south west (4/6)

This is the view to the southwest. It is hard to see, but a few of the bushes on the far bank are in bloom, with white blossoms. There are actually two kinds of bushes blooming in this picture. One is chokecherries, though it is late in the year for chokecherries to bloom. The other bush blooming is elderberries. Both make excellent preserves, though I suspect that I won’t be going to that far bank to pick any.

That is okay, though. There are gobs of both, and other wild fruits as well, in nearly every direction from home and closeby.
