Ginnie, I know that was not an easy job. Those berry patches were hot hot hot. I never made bayberries but always had them in the house for Xmas. I know on the outer banks of Cape Cod they have something called Rose Hips and I think they make candles out of them. Wonder if they have them on our Outer Banks, perhaps Kittie would know.

We worked about 4-6 hours a day, depending on how hot is was. We were lucky to make 2 dollars a day. But........we sure had fun! Anybody evr pick bayberries and make candles out of them? That's another thing we used to do as kids. Ginnie
