Petey gets so excited about the Apache Pine. What’s up with that?
Pinus englemannii is it’s northern most range in southeastern Arizona. Though at first glance it appears to be a Ponderosa Pine, certainly the very long needles give it away. It’s one of my favorite pines to grow and I take them to the farmers markets in Cochise County to sell. I suspect they will make me rich. It could happen.
These day trips of ours into the hills are so renewing. The particular canyon that I talking about is very close to our home...
I hope that this show sorta speaks for itself, but I will tell you I wrote this story and song in July of 2002...
It feels like there have a been a couple false starts to fall, at least temperature wise, but maybe the cool days of autumn...
