Posted on July 31, 2021 by Steve Gingold

06.20.2021 Summer Sunday-Indian Cucumber Root

Posted on June 20, 2021 by Steve Gingold

As the name implies, the root, really a tuber, is edible and tastes like a cucumber…although I personally have not yanked one out of the ground to munch upon it. I am relying on the report in good faith. The … Continue reading →

Posted on June 2, 2021 by Steve Gingold

06/02/2021 Rainy Day Cascade

Posted on June 2, 2021 by Steve Gingold

06/01/2021 Foggy Valleys and Hills

Posted on June 1, 2021 by Steve Gingold

There wasn’t much evidence of fog during my ride to New Salem this morning. But the NOAA site said there would be some and, sure enough, they were right. Just in the valleys but that allowed for some nice landscape … Continue reading →
