Our compost pile is supporting a family of mongoose. It'll be interesting to see if they snack on the trees, too...

Martha, I'm impressed. Imagine what you could do if you weren't doing contracts too! We're counting on great things from you when the full ER finally comes to pass. Maybe find a new plant subspecies and get naming rights? (in between the important stuff, of course...) 8)
