Thank you for all your help everyone, I waited awhile then unpause, low and behold it rained so I used the lift and got a piece of fruit. I checked the orchard and hooray fruit was ready. My chief just created more so hopefully I will be set for now. I need about 17,000 to get the pitcher plant and I can get rid of the sharks. I know I am probley way behaind all of you, but I wouldn't have you to help me otherwise. THANKS YOU ALL AGAIN!!!:)
