Catoctin Mountain is part of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and when I looked it up in Wikepedia, I wonder if Mary and Fran were aware that...
Much of the mountain, being shattered rock, is home to large populations of timber rattlesnakes.

You would love this place - I think you need a summer trip to DC to go here. The berries were incredible, we bought jams and pickles and they have a wonderful bakery so the smell of cinnamon when you walk in is just wonderful! We're ready to go back. And we had a delicious Sunday dinner at the Shamrock Restaurant right down the road. We'll do a repeat trip if you come down!
Go Pat, go!
You would appreciate a visit to the orchard, rattlers and all. There's nothing like fresh, luscious fruit. Nature's bounty indeed. I'm working my way through slurp-able peaches, sweet apricots, deep burgundy-colored cherries and giant blueberries. And you should have tasted the blackberries, which were the size of Texas. Oh and did I mention frozen custard (the real thing) and cranberry-apple cider? And the baked products-heavenly! And the blueberry preserves and the blackberry preserves.....ahhhhh and the food at Shamrock was great--the lemon layer cake was the best ever. C'mon down--the rattlers are waiting.
