I just have to say that it looks like I'm about to take ownership of a
little 1922 adobe cottage in NM (growing zone 6) that has mature fruit
trees: 1 peach, 1 pear, 1 apricot and plenty of room for all the garden I'd
ever want.
This is my dream, I'm 61, along and have never owned a house. Pray for me
and for the future jams, jellys, sauces, tasty dried morsels and...
I hope, I hope, I hope. I'll know within a week.

Welcome home, NM is where my heart really lies. But Ah'm a Texan naow. How
about planting a quince? The red flowers are stunning and the fruit is very
versatile. I've learned alot about quinces this last year. If I wasn't married
.... shoot, we could be friends now anyway. I'm only one area code away.
