I love your annecdotal stories. I could almost smell the creosote bushes.

I could almost smell the creosote bushes.<<<

Thank you, and it is a wonderful and healing smell.

The Mexicans and Western Indians use the Creosote bush as a healing herb, said to be good for the stomach, when used as a tea.

Some of us use it in cosmetics for ourselves and it makes a healing salve, when soaked in olive oil.

It is banned by the health department, but then they only ban the useful herbs.

My stories, are what I lived, odd, I have to keep telling myself that while I thought I was living a normal life, others have never been down the same paths.
