haha, yup for better or for worse. I'd say fig hunting is the "for better" category.

Nice looking fig Paul and a nice tree growing it. For better or worst eh, well it looks like you're getting things right from the beginning if that's the wifey on the lawn tractor. Way to go man, ha.

What a gorgeous color on the Fracazzano! If it tastes as good as it looks, it is definitely a winner.

Re: fig hunting in Europe...been there and done that, as they say, and what a great activity it is. Have a blast!
