Why they grow them so big there I don't know - maybe a special variety like with pears & apples. As for the fruit stands, same thing. Local farmers bringing their wares to the side of the road to sell - often in what seems like the middle of nowhere.The Idaho Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09979439849662755082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19193398.post-25663663672728807762016-07-03T22:43:45.157-07:002016-07-03T22:43:45.157-07:00A great apricot sketch and a nice story.

I have a fond memory of eating my fill of and then taking home a huge carton of apricots to L.A. from Santa Cruz, from the tree that was in the backyard of my husband-to-be's parents in the Santa Cruz mountains. My god, but those apricots were the best I ever had. I won't even buy them now because they're never good anymore and they cost a mint to boot. Your drawings are great!Cate Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04079028386218370915noreply@blogger.com
