A dear friend of ours has the most incredibly humongous avocado tree in his backyard. Last week during an impromptu barbecue, he demonstrated his skill of retrieving these delectable treats. The contraption is basically a metal cup with claws that is suspended on a long pole. In a perfect situation, the avocado picker would easily reach up into the branches, release the ready fruit, and transport it gently down to the ground. Due to the size of the tree, however, many of the avocados are seemingly out of reach. To remedy this extra challenge, Luke has resorted to gathering avocados from up on his roof. Craziness! Kyle also participated in the process, though thankfully his feet remained on solid ground.
