Our cousin, Serafino, grows some amazing fruit in his garden, including these wonderful pears. This even during construction of a new house practically on top of his garden for his daughter, son-in-law and 3 grandchildren.

Things are in quite a state with construction equipment and supplies everywhere, but the garden still continues.

It is always heartening to see how well plants and trees can grow even when confronted with a bit of adversity.
