Mango Picking

We are in mango season! Although I've recently found out that (I think) I am allergic to the blossoms, mangoes themselves are still my favorite fruit. Anyway, spontaneously, Daisy, Leeman, and I drove down to the southern part of Guam to look for these guys. We found a huge tree full of them across the street from a cemetery.


Lee climbed up the tree and dropped them down into bags that Daisy held out. I just ran around picking them up off of the ground. Then I climbed up on the car and grabbed some higher ones. We probably got about 10 pounds of mangoes, at least.

Out here, they eat mangoes green with kool aid, salt, soy sauce, and other stuff. I'm ok with that- but when they ripen they are the best! We ate a few on the drive home.
