What do people mean by peeling the grape? Dividing the wood-like parts from the edible parts or skin the flesh part of fruit itself?!

I thought it's a pointless act to waste time...

Typical remark from the peasantry. Those of us with dignity and class know what a true delicacy a skinned grape is.

Love the lighthouse. I generally like the northeast coast, but never really spent any time there.Posting where we've been now?
I'll post places I've been to in my own homestate
California Redwoods, been there.


There is a road named Avenue of the Giants. It is off of the main highway north/south and it is worth spending a couple of days driving.

I always wondered how you could do that without murdering the tree.

I thought some of our Oaks were amazing, but California seems to have the tree market. I was told that the Redwoods have a fire resistant bark and that the Indians used to set fire to the forest to clear out the brush. California also has the Sequoias, been there too on the same trip. So they have the oldest and then the tallest trees on earth, truly wondrous to see.Love the lighthouse. I generally like the northeast coast, but never really spent any time there.

You cannot. Either the tree is dead or it is dying. (likely just takes 75 years to die)

It looks like it's been that way for quite some time.

Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona. We only went there once when we were living there but I do want to go back.

St. Louis Arch. (I took these and posted them before but since were posting places we've been.)
This is on the inside overlooking Busch Stadium
And the only place in Arkansas I'd ever go or want to go back to:
Eureka Springs, Arkansas. It's a nice little town along the Ozark countryside.

Here's a place I haven't been to but want to.
Madrid, Spain. And I'd love to see the Plaza de Cibeles (below)

It's Split Rock Lighthouse, on the shore of Lake Superior.

Here is the view from the deck of my parents' lakehouse.

There was a freak rainstorm during cocktail hour.

I want to be there, even though I could just walk down to the lake here.

After a rigorous day of tree observing retuning to camp and the delights of the wild outdoors and open air, one likes a shower and at a minimum 4 star food service. I am not the outdoorizy one in our family.

Ahwahnee hotel, Yosemite, California
There was an incredible amount to see at Yosemite, but by the time we got there I had been overwhelmed with the wilds of the West. A couple of days and then off to San Francisco and that was FUN!

I camped a couple of times. But between my skinned grapes and delectable seedless strawberries, all the while allowing the servants to serve my cream soda in wine glasses I can never find the time to go again.
It's a shame I'm so busy these days...
