Passing through Hyrum, Utah the air is frequently thick with unpleasant smells as it is the home of a large slaughter house. Proceed south from Hyrum to Paradise and the air changes to cut hay. Keep on going and make the climb up raspberry hill to where Weeks raises their crop of the luscious little berry and you can’t gulp in the air fast enough. The sweet scent of raspberries fills your nose even as your lungs struggle to take in enough O2 to power your legs up the climb. It’s a beautiful way to start the day.
