It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.

Re: This olive may come home one day hehehehe
Went back today to check this tree 
an found that the deadwood in pictures was just sitting on the ground not part of the tree 
.
But any way i checked out the tree an it looks good may get a raft olive out of it i think, been after one for a while but hard to find as most olives are clump style. Below is some pictures of the tree planning on going back to dig it out in the next week or so . Just up from it i found a little olive that i collected looked like it been eaten by sheep has some nice dead wood on it for a small tree .
