Rainy Day Edition of My Rhymes and Reasons 11.26
Rainy Day Edition of My Rhymes and Reasons
Hey, it’s Greg Asimakoupoulos with a rainy day edition of My Rhymes and Reasons from the trunk of a tree here at Island Park. It’s been a drizzly week and I know you’ve heard that in previous days broadcast.
Today I wanted to come close to look at these mushrooms that are growing out of the trunk of this mossy tree. The mossy trunk of a tree, I should say. Look at them.
So delicate. It reminds me this Thanksgiving week that back in the beginning when the Native Americans hosted Thanksgiving with our forebears, those pilgrims that came on the Mayflower and celebrated their first Thanksgiving in the new world. New to them, not new to those who inhabited this land.
Our Native American brothers and sisters, they were in need of guidance. They didn’t know which mushrooms were edible and which were poisonous.
I have a sister-in-law in Fredericksburg, Virginia, who lives with her husband, my brother-in-law, on a 10 acre gentleman’s farm. My brother-in-law is a DC attorney, but he spends weekends and free time cultivating his farm.
