In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, soda and salt; set aside. In the large bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. With mixer set on medium-low speed, add the buttermilk and vanilla; mix until well incorporated. Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix until all is well incorporated. Take bowl off the mixer stand and fold in the chips and cherries. Spoon onto parchment lined baking sheets, and bake for 12-15 minutes.
