In any case, I've never seen peach trees up here! There were a few in Rhode Island...but here we have apples and cherries, but not too many other fruit trees. I can remember being amazed when we visited my grandmother in Indiana because the next door neighbors had a big plum tree.

I could deal with that. Still want my four seasons, though...but I'm thinking a bit about the midwest these days...maybe even southern midwest.

You might like Southern Illinois, or Missouri, but if you still want to see hills and mountains, you'll need to be close to the Ozarks!!

I miss all my fruit trees. I had peach, pear, apricot and plum. Also, like all over Texas pecans. I never ever had enough peaches though. I would eat 'em right off the trees soon as they started getting ripe. Rarely did I even get a jar of preserves out of my own peaches! LOL
