At that time I had an investment of over $1,000.00 in new citrus and other fruit trees that I hopefully will be attending too after I retire. So yes I sacrificed in other areas to get them established. Out of close to fifty trees I only lost one and it was not from lack of water.

as I mentioned I had a $400.00 irrigation bill twice last year so it is WELL worth it.
Oh I applaud you for drilling the well. I used to live in the CITY also till I was able to downsize and live a simple life. I'm soon to retire also...Found out after years of public service I don't like people that much anymore lol

Peace B with U

HMMM! Took you that long!

As a public servant I resemble that remark.

I'm a .000001 percenter. That is the percentage of people I have tolerance for. The majority of which I have some connection through Figs, Citrus, Bananas or some other plant.

We had rain almost everyday here since May so fortunately I have not irrigated much this year. I have a water well with an old water pump that suffered pitting corrosion in a coupling and spent my Christmas holiday fixing this problem. There was no water for two days and Christmas day!

The peak of the hurricane season is almost here so must keep close watch on those tropical disturbances coming off the Africa coast. I have a feeling that the next seven weeks are going to very active.
