got a buddha hand and lime finger citrus today

We went out today and the hit the batting cage in El Monte. After, we went out to one nursery looking for exotic citrus-- buddha hand and finger lime.  To our surprise, we found both at the first place we went. I have never seen either except at the Citrus Park in Riverside.

We put them in today in the front yard.  The buddha hand replaced the guava on the east side in the center.

Then we put the finger lime in the south center of the front yard.  We put the papaya in a pot.

notes on Utopia Drive by Erik Fleece (2016)

Erik Reece describes various utopian societies in the US from the 19th Century to the present.  They differ is some ways. Some are religious, some are secular.  But they all reject some aspect of the broader culture, such as excessive materialism, excessive individualism, or racism.  They do tend to fizzle out, but it's not a failure.  There's another that seems to be there to pick up the baton.

It's inspiring to see people not only have an opinion but to back it up with a life choice and true sacrifice.

It's a good read.
