Most of our day was spent in the MP watching the rain. There was a short break and I was able to get out for a brief ride. Here's one thing I didn't mention yesterday. Along one of the trails I have ridden a couple of times are a couple of trees that had yellow fruit about the size and color of tennis balls. I was intrigued so I stopped and brought 3 of them back. We did some research based on their shape, size and color and determined that they were some weird fruit from a plant that is a native of Africa. I was curious about the taste. They were supposedly edible. Turns out the damn things were grapefruit. The skin was real thick and there were tons of seeds but the taste was unmistakable. They are maybe a native variety. Certainly something you would never see for sale at Whole Foods. We start our drive back north tomorrow.
