Close the gate so the wild horses don’t come in and eat from the almond tree, they said. We did. Watch out for coconuts dropping from the tree, they said. We did. Had they known, I’m sure the car rental company we rented from for our drive home would have said, don’t put the Jeep into 4wd to drive in deep snow under and between chain-sawed trees to get home at 4:30am in the thick of a winter storm. But in our delirious determination, we did. A little pre-spring mother/daughter time with my fifteen year old.
