Nice looking pics all the way around. I see you take pride in what you do.
Keep up the good work.

The golf clubs where the icing on the cake!

My dad ran out of sticks to hold his tomatoes so he went after my Ugly Stick ( fishing stick ). Improvise!

Very nice 7deuce! Well manicured lawn and I appreciate the uniformity of the trees. Nice how you have maintained the tree form at a manageable height. You and Martin have a similar talent.

If someone stole my prized fishing rods to use for plants I think I'd beat them silly.  I have a 6.5' medium-heavy Ugly Stick as my main rig.

@7deuce, gorgeous pergola and great looking trees/setup.  I'm really liking what you have going.  You have a great collection.  I love seeing new setups like yours.

.........very nice. I definitely can see heaven in those pictures.

Jason,

That's my dad we're talking about. He is almost 80.
He controls the yard. I let him with his freedom and just correct him without trying to upset him.

Now on the other hand,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, We are going to beat you down with an Ugly stick.


Wow, fig heaven indeed! Healthy trees everywhere. Thanks for sharing.

If you do that and I'm the person who stole your fig tree, you certainly won't be getting it back!!!!

Great pictures i enjoyed them.
Ugly stick...good rod
No 1 ever touches my 2 vintage Eagle Claws <<< model - sweetheart >>

Thanks for showing your pictures.

Thanks for the nice comments. This hobby makes me feel like a crackhead sometimes.

You, me and probably most of the active members around here.

The vast majority of people just don't understand why anyone would want more than 3-4 varieties of one single type of fruit.... or even a type of tree for that matter.

They are extremely addictive.  The problem is--Who wants to kick that addiction?  I surely do not.

Who can get enough of eating figs?  I can't.

I'm convinced that figs have a substance in them that really IS addictive and isn't it wonderful?  :)

Rafed,

You are a son to be proud of.
