Belle decided to go berry picking. She put on her black jacket, and black rubber boots. She grabbed a 1 gallon berry picking bucket and walked out the door. It was still early enough in the day, that there was no one going out yet. In this small town, barely anybody went out this late in the morning, which was about 10:30 AM.
She walked down the stairs and walked onto the boardwalks towards her berry picking spot. She was aiming to pick some raspberries, if she could find any. It took her about 10 minutes to get where she was going, she was feeling content about picking some berries. She loved berries. When she got to her berry picking spot, she found some raspberries and started picking some. 20 minutes flew by and she had picked about 6 handfuls of delectable raspberries. They were big this year, she noticed. She couldn't find anymore, except the small ones she decided to leave behind. So she decided to start walking back towards her house. As she was walking, she looked to the ground and saw some low bush blueberries. She got excited and squealed, yay blueberries! They looked very huge and grew in clumps. She stooped down and picked. 1 handful after the next, altogether she picked about 10 handfuls and was satisfied of all the berries she had picked.
She decided that that was enough berries for now, and decided to start heading home. It took her about 10 minutes to walk home.
When she got home, she excitedly showed her mother, Lannie, her berries. Her mother just said, "Hm" Her brother and 2 sisters said, "WOW."
Belle checked the time, and it was about 11:30 AM, she had been gone for about an hour. She decided to have a snack and rest. She had a cheese sandwich and some cold, chilled, green tea.
After her snack, Belle lay on her bed deciding what to do now.
