Doddie:

*heavy sigh*

I miss living up there Susan and I know what you mean. I live in So. 
Cal.now..and there are only two grocery stores willing to buy 
local...and that do most of the butchering on premises...

At least in Nor. Cal. I know that I could at least go to the ranch and 
buy from the rancher himself.

Produce...a complete dream...citrus, pears, apples, nuts, lettuce of 
many varieties..I won't even get into the melons...great weather for 
great melons in No. Ca.

I won't even get into pommegranites...and what outrageous prices they 
charge for pommegranite juice...one of the easiest fruit trees to 
maintain and one of the fruit trees it's cost effective to grow to 
fruit..not alot of water etc...and when the market's no good...can be 
stored for years....

Doddie,
(who wants that fruit salad "real bad" right now...pink watermelon, 
yellow watermelon, green honeydew, orange cantelope, orange 
watermelon...I'm just drooling..)
