Name That Vine July 23, 2007

typical tree at Camp PI

Yes! If you recognize this, you are ahead of the maintenance staff at the camp we just returned from (we have renamed it Camp Poison Ivy, btw) who apparently do not recognize the stuff, which is as prolific there as dandelions in my yard. When it is pointed out to them, what do they do to eradicate it? Weed Whack it ~ spraying noxious shards far and wide. Ack.

And, is it just me, or does anyone else take one look at this and go, “Tower of Babel?” I won’t be surprised if there is a great scattering of people and many new courses to be added to Rosetta Stone’s offerings.

Yikes! Welcome back. Kind of looks like my backyard when we first moved here. The maintenance could have been worse. My uncle had a neighbor that thought it would be a good idea to burn the stuff.
I’m always amused by architectural chutzpah. Having watched the Towers go down, I would think people would have learned the lesson by now–that is, never build higher than you can run down in 5 minutes.
Missed you! Good to have you back.

Peace and Laughter,

Wow! Haven’t they ever heard the saying “leaves of three, let them be”?
