7/30/11 MAGIC JOHNSON REMEMBERS 1ST ARRIVING IN CALIFORNIA & THE THRILL OF ORANGE TREES IN PEOPLES YARDS


...Ha ha..yes..that's something that would capture the attention of somebody from michigan ...having grown up in michigan myself & coming to californina in '84 I remember the feeling ...the orange trees..the avocado tree in my grandpa's backyard ..I don't think the native californians in the audience understood what magic was talking about..most californians w/ these fruit trees in their yards don't even pick the fruit..its strange..but if u grow up shoveling snow 5 months of the year, & cold cloudy rainy or snowy weather 9 months of the year, u definitely appreciate warm weather & orange trees in the yard ..at least at first ..then magic went on to talk about the celebs he met.. incl muhammad ali..
