Let the farming begin!

The week is going quickly and I leave for Hawaii in just 4 more days! So much to do... Tomorrow I am going down to southern California for some work meetings and an "aloha lunch" with my team members, the house is getting it's appraisal and inspection by the buyers and the financing should pass the 7 day mark for the buyer to verify the down payment. I hope all of that breezes through.

First Avocado Harvest

That's Mailie hiding behind the scale!

 
I got the final health certificate for Mailie, the first of our cats to make the trip with me on Monday. Hawaii has such strict guidelines and regulations for importing pet I am happy to have this step completed... She is not a happy cat at the vets!

Today John made contact with the avocado buyer and picked about 100 lbs of avocados off of just 1 of the 42 trees! He is making his first delivery tomorrow after he picks another 1/2 day... He can now officially be called "Farmer John" to his great pleasure.
