green

It's not much compared to the lush green-ness of Michigan in June, but it's enough green that I feel a rush of happy every time I catch sight of them out the front door.


Yesterday we went fruit tree shopping. We got Ruby Red Grapefruit, orange, lemon, mango, peach, plum and a grape vine. Add that to the pomegranate we already had and we have a lot of planting to do. We talked through the possibilities of where to plant yesterday taking into consideration access to waterlines, shade, and mature tree size. While the trees wait for Jay and a friend to tackle the difficult task of chopping through our rock filled soil....I'm going to work on a plan of how to have some of the trees end up in my line of sight from inside the house so I can continue to have this happy-green feeling.
