Location: Behind Joseph & Company in a back alley (full location information can be found via the Google Maps link at the end of the post)

Description: A sheet metal fence with a brown piece in the middle, and branches from a bush coming out from the gap between the two pieces.

Story: I'm sure you've heard that "If life gives you lemons, make lemonade." That's only the start though. Once you've made the lemonade you should drink it and dream of star ships or dance routines, things that never were and sights unseen. Plan for tomorrow what there isn't today, and never let "reality" stand in your way.

Take those lemons, some metal, and build a battery, to power a machine that dispenses flattery. In a temperate climate you could plant your lemon seeds; have the farm you create provide all our citrus needs. Start a flavour revolution with a dash of lime; add some lemon zest to compliment your chicken with thyme

To get a new dance move,
Watch the lemon groove,
With a wobble,
And a bobble,
It'll help you improve.

Change lemon into melon via convolution;
Start contemplating the theory of evolution.
Spare vinegar, make a citric substitution,
And give your volcano a lemon execution.

You could combat scurvy and gets lots of C,
if you just had some lemon in your cup of tea.
That's as far as I can stretch this analogy,
so let's slowly make our way back to reality.

It's not the place you start or what you have there, it's that you look ahead and keep asking: "Where? Where will this take me, what's in store?" and that you always keep on questing for more. Not more in the sense of objects and things, but more in smiles, the happiness life brings.

And that's what this plant did, it kept on growing, knowing that it would eventually break through. It didn't stop, wither and die, but grew, grew for the sky. You'll see challenges, obstacles, issues to be sure, but they're not that you know, they're part of the cure. Just sidestep, capture, and use them for good, they're already there; you know that you could.

If a train's coming at you, you don't try to stop it with brute strength. It's wiser to step out of the way, and maybe buy a ticket for the next one coming through. Any problem can be made into a solution; that's what algebra was all about. All it takes is a little rearranging, and maybe exchanging an E for a P to make things fit eerfectly.
