Knee Deep in Weeds

“You can journey to the ends of the earth in search of success, but if you’re lucky, you will discover happiness in your own backyard.”

- Russell Conwell

The apples are few on our two trees this year. They follow the path of the other fruit baring trees in our yard. Unlike a row of carrots or a few tomato plants, they take more care, and attention, both things I am just not willing to give any more. Instead I give them whole heartedly to the wildlife in our backyard. In hopes that the fallen fruit might help them through the cold months ahead.
