Sounds awesome..if only I had known you before my brother retired from the Navy (last 4 years stationed at El Centro NAS).
Just curious..what do you do with all the fruit?
We sell Carambolas and a few other things to a local Asian market.
Bananas we usually dehydrate what we can not eat/give away fresh.
Figs are awesome (the FL nematodes love them as well..lol).

San Diego has so many wonderful things to see, do, enjoy; an extremely varied commercial fruit, plant, and nursery industry (Cactus to Macadamias, Dragon Fruit to Figs, almost anything grown anywhere in the world).
Fall is a fabulous time to visit, when the weather is cooler, the Santa Ana winds make the sky sparkle, and rain almost never, ever spoils you ability to go, see and do anything your heart desires.
Did I mention the World Famous Zoo, Sea World, surfing, breweries, Quail Gardens, Miramar Air show...
Visitors are always welcome.
