Peachy Keen

Since we were in a fruit-conversation mood yesterday, I thought I'd show you a picture of a green peach on its way to edible goodness.

This photo was taken in my son's San Jose back yard. The fruit is one of maybe a dozen that were still hanging on. It's about an inch-and-a-half from stem to tip and hopefully by now has achieved full ripeness.

Actually, I've had those peaches before and they're rather on the crunchy side and a bit tart. Not exactly your canned cling peach halves, but what do you expect from a peach plant grown in the city?

Peachy, huh?
