Today we picked up some KFC and had a picnic in John and Violet's back yard. There were 6 of us, my sisters, Sandy, Dol and I. They have a huge, beautiful back yard and they invite senior citizens to come, bring their picnic lunch, enjoy the very nice surroundings and have fresh fruit from their yard for dessert. They have invited the residents from Grace Home this Thursday. 
After eating our lunch, John gives a tour of his backyard on his golf cart. Carolyn and I had the tour before so we stayed behind and took some pictures. Dol let the women ride and he walked along and got the tour and some exercise at the same time.
This is just a part of the many fruit trees in the family orchard. There are peaches, apricots, plums, cherries, citrus, and much more. There are wells around each tree for proper irrigation.
Here they are, back from the grand tour. Sandy is sitting in the front, next to John. You can see the big bicycle decoration in the back ground. To see more of the pictures that I took today click here.
Storm clouds appeared just before we left. The sky was beautiful with the dark clouds and we did get a few sprinkles as we packed up the car. We got home, unloaded the car and then the wind and the rain came. It was a downpour. What great timing we had. Got home just in time.
Sandy has a nice post on her blog about today's outing. See it here.
Her pictures at flickr can be seen here.
