Show PAGE 27 THE ZEPHYRNOVEMBER 1995 C ' from Negro Bill Canyon. Her exposed rear end poked into some low woody stems hidden among dense green chcatgrass, but she paid no attention to that fact and quickly forgot the whole incident. Several days later, she developed an itchy rash on her bottom. It became so severe that she sought help from a dermatologist, and almost wound up in the hospital. The diagnosis, as you may have guessed, was poison ivy. Poison ivy ( Toxicodendron rydbergii ) grows in many canyon-countr- y seeps, moist alcoves, hanging gardens, and streamside areas. I have even seen it in Moab, growing right next to the new Mill Creek walkway where it parallels the road into the Bar-Chuckwagon, off of 4th East. Many of us have heard the phrase "leaflets three, let it be". Unfortunately, this little adage isn't very helpful in the spring before the leaflets come out, as my acquaintance learned the hard way. "Okay," you say defeatedly, "so we have no safe haven from poisonous plants. We haw to be on our guard constantly as we interact with the plant world, right?" Well... Please don't get the idea from all of this that there are deadly poisons lying unsuspected in every bit of greenery around you. The vast majority of Plant Kingdom members are at least benign, if not outright beneficial. So just a final word to the wise: if you go digging for the tasty bulbs of wild onion or sego lily, make sure you don't get death camas instead.

Last time we was a talkin' about OLD STEVE, him bein' the one that found all that fresh brewed beer under the desert floor. Well, drink'n beer and carryin' on is all well and good, but it sure can work up the hunger of a thousand grizzlies cornin' outta their winter's sleep. When it comes to that malady, the doctor is always in at McSTIFF'S and you don't need no appointment. Just barge right in and ask for SPAGHETTI EDDIE. They say, "he can make the shoe leather you walk in taste better than what 10 chefs could do with a stack of fresh groceries.!" Since they use nuthin' but the freshest and finest ingredients, you better be figurin' on givin' them ol' taste buds a workout. But don't you go makin' any sudden moves...wouldn't want to spook SPAGHETTI EDDIE. They say he's got "The Fastest Tongs in the West." C$Tie to T3 O O CO 0) to U) L.
