Going out on a limb: Looking like the 13th

As I breezed through the rows this weekend, a brisk clip and while squinting, I assessed the status optimistically at about 50% ripe, which is more than double from the week before, so we are going to cross our fingers and hope that we can open on the 13th. When I refer to % ripe, it does not mean that X% of the bushes are ripe, rather that % refers to the fraction of berries amongst all the bushes appear ripe. Final decision about the opener will be Wednesday, evening. If we do not make any significant ripening between now and then, the opener will be delayed. Thanks for your patience.
