I love my neighborhood - today's episode - stopped to talk to a man who'd previously invited me to help myself to the sweetpea flowers on his fence.

He asked "would you like some fruit?" "Ummm..?" Grabs a grocery bag and clippers and invites me into his back yard, lined with citrus trees in full ripe fruit. Agreed to accept a couple each of the oranges and tangerines (I was already carrying a bag of groceries) but I think he'd have given me as much as I was willing to accept.

I do walk by there a couple of times a week :)

We do the same thing with our apples. We get so many, we can't possibly do anything with all of them. You walk by, you get apples. -- nm - spamlet Jan 28, 12:50 4
