Not ripe, still to brown, has to be that a nice green color we all know and love

Picking that one is going to be a problem

See, they do grow on trees

The doctor told that tree that it needed more iron in its system. Must have been good advice as the tree has grown up to be big and strong!

Speedway Motors has a multitude of unusual flathead artifacts in their museum, it would be neat before that block is totally consumed to save a 4 foot stump with it intact for display.
