What is this growing on the evergreen?!?!

While at the dog park, Beth and I saw this gelatinous mess on the ground, we were afraid some poor dog had gotten sick. When I looked up it was all over these evergreens. Is it a berry? Weird, I have never seen it before...

    Grandpa P says the gooey stuff is Cedar Apple Rust,a fungus that grows on most Juniper trees. (He says you'd be lucky to find a Juniper that isn't infected. It isn't "terminal" and the spores are carried by wind from tree to tree.) Just thought you'd like to know! B ;)
