Michelle’s flown home–and my old friend Constance arrived.
You know the kind of friend who is kind, who is thoughtful, and who keeps you laughing nonstop? Everybody needs a Constance.
One of the first things she said, was, I want to see my grandtree! She’s the one who had grown up with a Babcock peach, who when I was trying to figure out what to plant told me it was the best peach ever. My family had picked Babcocks at a pick-your-own when I was a kid, and between the two of us I was sold on the idea.
It’s my smallest peach tree but it’s a pretty one.
The critters beat her to the last of its fruit by two days, though; we’ll just have to make this an annual trip.
