Last month we had a big party for many friends, neighbors and coworkers. As usual many guests brought us hostess gifts as a thank you for being included. Most of them brought wine, which is always thoughtful and appreciated. Others bring flowers, either cut or flowering potted plants, also always appreciated. But one couple went way out of their way to find something special and brought us a peach tree! It was in a 5 gallon pot and no easy feat to lug it down the block I'm sure. What a special and thoughtful gift! It is already in the ground and acclimating to the garden along side our other fruit trees. I'm touched!
