Today is not a good day for me. While I was getting herbs at my backyard, I saw a pomelo on the ground under its tree.
I shouted OMG, the wind did it. It has been extreme wind for the past few days, and during the night time was even worst. I have only two pomelos this year on my tree, I was looking forward to having them till the full harvest.
Now I have only one left, I do hope this fruit will hang on, I want to see what it is like to have fresh pomelo at its best. The wind the stormy wind, it is nature, it's beyond my control, I know. One pomelo is better than nothing.
