Fun Fruit Tree Facts - From a Small Person's Perspective...

Sometimes we don't realize small people have a different perspective on life...for example...
...they can stand under a dwarf orange tree without hitting their heads...





...nor do they have to bend down to pick low hanging fruit...




...but on the downside...

...they cannot carry more than two pieces of fruit!!

The Beauty of the Desert

I could tell people thought I was crazy when people heard I was going to the southwestern desert area...but I think that is because they have never noticed things like the flower cluster on a Red Barberry...


or the color of a Fairy Duster...


...maybe they haven't noticed the color contrast of cacti against the deeply colored canyon walls...



...or the unique growth of the Teddy bear cholla...



...yes...you can find many different things of beauty no matter where you are if you only take some time...




PS-this post doesn't mean that I am not little crazy...but you will have to be the judge of that!
