EISPIRATEN

(Found growing near Red Box on the Gabrielino Trail)

Cool!!! I have been looking for this all summer! You didn't touch it, did you?

Calico Kitty?

Mmm Mmm Mmmmm

Mind if I join in?

Taco, now that's what a Poodle Dog Bush SHOULD look like!! Bow Wow!

lulz

PackerGreg, you made me LOL!

Ding ding ding! We have a winner! Packer Greg - I now pronounce you King Photoshop!

Can you photoshop Taco going around a corner on Highway 39? He has to be on a tricycle though, one wheel in the air as he tops out a 5mph

Bonus points if you can turn it into a .gif

This is getting interesting.

So that's "Poodle Dog" bush. Sheesh. It looks just like Yerba Santa. I'd brush up against that thing without giving it a second thought. And the rash is supposed to last a month?

That's what I've read. Supposed to be like stinging nettle and poison oak combined.

Makes yuccas seem downright huggable...

Sounds like a real winner. I wonder if they could make base layers out of it.

I'm not a foliage person, so I probably would've sat on that poodle dog bush if an SCA guy hadn't pointed it out.

SCA?

Thanks for the heads up on a hazardous plant. I learned something new.
