Cherries Jubilee

There is a retired guy just up the road from us whose yard we have admired for years. It's always immaculate. I have noticed the last couple of years that he has a cherry tree that is always loaded but he doesn't seem to pick them. I finally got up the nerve to knock on his door (with a jar of jam on hand of course) to ask if I could pick the cherries. He was so surprised that I stopped to ask and even more shocked that I came bearing gifts. We went on Monday night and picked the tree pretty clean. Be on the look out for cherry jelly later this summer! Thanks Hugh for letting us pick the cherries!
