The fellows, on their own volition, have again gone fruit-picking! This time, for apples. (They also conveniently stopped at a near by winery).

First wellness event of the year! Blueberry picking at one of our lovely clinic nurse's blueberry patch. Of course some pizza was had as well as a healthy dose of tick repellent! #uconn
