I think we fear getting the white kind that is poisonous. I wonder what the toxin is?

Tui and I wil take our drive around the loop soon. We keep spring happening well into June by taking our drives to higher and higher places. I recommend a drive to the Lassiks in mid June. Stop at Watts Lake (this is a lake?) for lunch and then on to a whole other world at the Lassiks. The road goes on and down to the Van Duzen and we go to Hettenshaw Valley to see the purple Camass and the sunflowers. If you hit it right, it is unforgettable.Bennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-924013241079711992.post-4374165534652021032009-04-01T21:05:00.000-07:002009-04-01T21:05:00.000-07:00You got me ms blah blah.I feel like a new human ev...You got me ms blah blah.<BR/><BR/>I feel like a new human every Spring, lighter and more enthusiastic. I guess a lot of people feel that way.

Same with the cute little Western Bluebird, they are only found in the higher elevations. I always liked to watch the Bluebirds take care of their nestlings. I recently discovered that the female Bluebird is a little trollop, that finds her fun where she may. <I>“Genetic studies showed that 45% of nests had young that were not fathered by the defending male, <BR/>“</I><BR/><BR/>When I lived I Laytonville we had both birds near our house and I sure do miss them.Ernie Branscombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06391160783604462511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-924013241079711992.post-122301495762734912009-03-31T09:29:00.000-07:002009-03-31T09:29:00.000-07:00I love spring too.
