Our corn is looking beautiful and tall – it’s now well over my head in height:
Nearby, the pomegranate tree is blooming again after bearing a good half-dozen fruits last month:
And the purple-podded Roma beans are bearing abundantly:
The jackfruit is SO close!
And watch out where you leave your mangoes when you’re in the tropics… you might end up sharing the fruit with a scaly little visitor:
That last shot is my favorite yet… and it’s the only one I didn’t take. It’s one of Rachel’s. She’s always been good at photography… I should just hand her the camera and walk away.
Of course, then I’d end up stuck with the laundry, the cooking and the dishes.
Hmm…
…no, I’ll hold onto the camera.
These images are all shot on my Canon 70D, which is also the camera I use to film my Totally Crazy Easy Gardening episodes for YouTube. It takes wonderful photos.
If you enjoy seeing lots of pretty pictures from our tropical homestead, you can follow me on Instagram here. I still don’t know what the point of Instagram actually is, but I do post pictures on it. So there.

That lizard is beautiful! Eating fruit for an anole is awful interesting! I used to breed reptiles and still keep a few. I’d totally love to have a few of those. I don’t know if you’d be willing to ship some here to FL but I’d pay for it. If you could hit me up at cderek83@gmail.com
If not no worries.
I bet that lizard needed floss after eating that mango, that thing looks thready! I’m sure it’s a treat though. I have never seen the purple beans before, they are beautiful.
You should do a video on other aspects of living where you do ( without disclosing location) like infrastructure, reliability of utilities, buying essentials and entertainment if any. Is it a difficult life? What are the plans for the homestead? How long do you plan on living there? Maybe that would give people the info to do the same thing someday.
Great pics, thanks for sharing!
