Born and raised in Ak, no monthly check though. The Seldovia NA used to hire my mother to teach all the little native kids what NOT to eat in the woods, lol. My grandparents started up by Palmer right after the war, kept moving south as the people moved in. They found a place up Seldovia Bay in the 50's and stayed. We grew up there, and later my parents were planning a move to Chrome Bay but it never happened. Still not quite sure what I'm doing in the cornfields of Nebraska...lol.

You would laugh, but in sympathy, I'm sure. When I got here (NE) the first thing I did was order plant books....I feel lost if I don't know what I can live on and what I can't. And that is a very foreign attitude in the cornfields, let me tell you! Things are either crops or noxious weeds, no in between. Ask if it's good for anything, and you'll get a look like you've sprouted a tail! :) Carolyn

I always do that first thing too. And it did make me laugh to picture asking farmers if this "weed" (non crop) is good for anything.

Nummy colors, those are great. It still hasnt stopped amazing me, what different people can do with glass, each beautiful, each so different from the other that it hardly seems to be the same medium. Diana
