New "Kid" on the Block...

Yup, today was day when one of the 2 marcots made on our ageing guava tree (pls see 19th July entry), was physically "born"...its connection to the parent tree was literally severed! In its new home now. In its own plot. On its own. Now the wait starts. If new leaves/shoots appear in time, then it is a "survivor"...

At the top is the NKOTB, ie new "kid" on the block. In its new home on the ground. The pic just below that shows both kids...the first & earlier marcot planted (pls see August 2nd entry) is the one on the left. Now with fruits...can't see the fruits tho but do you see the paper wrappings? Wrapped to protect them from harm.

If all goes well, our old & ageing guava tree can safely take its well-earned rest...maybe a few more good seasons of fruits b4 that? At least & hopefully it waits for its young ones to mature well & bearing great fruits first.

Well, that's abt it. Nothing much except that the world is as troubled as it always is. Latest being the unrest & demonstrations by monks in Myanmar, oka Burma. Let's see how it develops. However, somehow a feeling of gloom. Lives are gonna be lost cos of some power-hungry leaders.

Mankind never learns from history. Peace.
