Finding a double-flowered fig in my tree this afternoon can only mean good fortune. And the tree is loaded with figs (as you can see). Tree from a cutting of a cutting from an old tree in our home downtown Laredo. ❤️ Hold your people close.
Always grateful for these moments. Really grateful. Gracias, Boldface Conference. University of Houston. ❤️👊🏼❤️ #FILTHEATERS @willevans.bsky.social @deepvellum.bsky.social
