Nice find

[WolfTracker]

Today, I was hiking in an area that at one time must have had an orchard on it. I came across these beauties. The last time that I had them was in Bolivia. They were referred to as "limas" or limes. However, they can grow to the size of grapefruits. The have no seeds inside.

Nice find! When I lived in Tampa there was some woods/swamp/palmetto fields behind the apartments we lived in. There must have been an old home place there at one time because I found several fruit trees just growing wild back in there where I made a camp. I so miss Florida some times!

Hey Mist... You can come down anytime.

Yes, the knife is a Grohmann. It's my favorite all-around knife. It doesn't show it, but it gets a fair amount of use, although I don't beat on it, either. I love it.

As for Canadians, they come down by the camper full, this time of year. There are more canucks than Floridians

Careful what you say my friend..lol, I really miss south Florida sometimes and I could always tell the wife that you said I could come down anytime .

The last time I was down there all of the people I was dealing with, and most of the people I was working with, had northern accents. Only girl that ever drank me under the table worked with me down there and she was from Michigan.

The flesh is orange, right ?
Those things are all over the mountains here.
There is a bird called an oropendula that relishes the few seeds they can have and seem to know which fruits have a few. They pick a hole in it and slurp out the seeds.
The old timers down here say the seeds are eaten by them to kill parasites and , of course, they pass them and you have the trees sprouting everywhere. That and papaya.
I'm drinking some limoneiade right now. With a shot of guaro for good measure

Guaro? Is that anything like cachaca?

 

[WolfTracker]

No, it's green. Tastes like a mild lime. Makes great juice when mixed with a little water and ice.
