What a choice! We have three apple trees that are espaliers. We also have Asian pears, Barrett's, Asian persimmons, jujus, a cherry tree, a fig tree, quince and medlar. I have just finished a rendition of Gilgamesh. It was very interesting to see some OT themes in that. Before that I read some temple hymns written probably by a high priestess at Ur. Now I am looking to learn more about Sumer in particular and the ancient middle east in particular. My current read is Drive Your Plow Over the Bones and I am chuckling away at the humor although I think it is also a serious book.
Everything was paradise until we knew there were gender differences and we had knowledge of you know what.
Michele I grew up on a property with 30 apple trees. Whatever the theological implications, I found the apples damned good.
