RE: Country drive California Route 63 with the babies. Tulare County is the land of oranges and the gateway to the National Parks
Beautiful country! Are any of those date palms? Do you eat a lot of oranges? ; )
@haphazard-hstead, not sure about palms. I grew up surrounded by orange trees and they use to stay on trees a lot longer. I would eat 3 or 4 oranges a day during the season. In High School, our wrestling team would run down a country road to a stop sign and back surrounded by orange orchards. I would eat two or three during the two mile run. I remember those orchards always had huge super easy to peel navel oranges. Navels are a winter fruit and the valencia is a summer fruit.
Those are some great memories. Thanks for sharing them. It seems pretty magical.
