We did it! Today the Misers bought and planted an orange tree. Well, actually Sparky planted the tree. And he had to dig out a huge rock that was in the way, and then get three wheel barrels full of soil from the other side of the yard in order to plant the damn thing. But he did it, and we are all pleased as punch. Originally we had talked about planting an apple tree, but we decided that since we live in So Cal that citrus was the way to go. We now have a Myers lemon tree, an Oro Blanca grapefruit tree, and our brand new baby Valencia orange tree. Bee will be happy because soon she'll be able to have freshly squeezed organic orange juice everyday, or "yellow" as she calls it. And I'm happy because this Miser knows that we'll be saving money on all of our citrus needs. Plus, none of us will ever get scurvy.
