Nothing Rhymes with Orange

Welcome to what will hopefully be a long running series of blog postings into my world of Farming, Logic, Common Sense, and whatever else goes through the mind of a modern day Orange Farmer trying to earn a living in the "orange belt" of the San Joaquin Valley of California.
Sure I am a few years late arriving to the "BLOGOSPHERE", but I figured with all the doom and gloom of the news lately, and the surefire hellish end to all of mankind that the Mayan culture and their calendar has predicted for us in 2012, I thought..."could one more blog (of the millions of blogs already on the web), really make that much of a difference?" Well, here's the "rub"...see, farmers are naturally optimistic, in fact it happens to be a job requirement. So with that in mind, I started to think..."what if the Mayan Calendar was WRONG? What if the end of the world isn't actually until say 2025, what would people be reading on the web as they wait an extra 13 years? Ah-ha...yes sir, thus my blog..."Nothing Rhymes with Orange". I hope you enjoy. If there is anything in particular you would like me to blog about, let me know. Farmers are always happy to oblige. And if you have any farming questions in regards to farming or raising oranges, please e-mail me and I would be happy to try and help. tony@pearsonranch.com. If you happen to be looking for the greatest Oranges or even Pomelos on the planet...yup, look us up at www.pearsonranch.com

P.S.
in case you were wondering, nothing in the English language really does rhyme with orange.

Thanks for reading.
