The Last Logs to Haul! The last dozen or so logs had to be cut, trimmed and hauled in to Woodhenge to complete the 64 post in the outer circle. The Complete I Ching! Mat Hargrave and Jesse Footit came by and gave the last extra effort to get this done.

Forest Woodhenge Water Hole. The is very little water in the Oak Ridges Morraine. The land is all sandy. There is a depression at the foot of the Eastern path from the woodhenge. It is down a steep incline. We put a plastic tarp there to see how much water we could collect.

Precious Jewel Weed! Jewel Weed is the antidote to poison ivy! Squeeze the juice out of the stems and rub it on the rash, or even just rub the leaves and flowers. The juice however is the strongest. We made a paste of the leaves and flowers and then froze the paste. This gave us protection early in the spring before the Jewel weed has grown and late in the fall after it has died.

Forest Woodhenge: The Approach

Poison Ivy! Poison Ivy is one of the strongest poisons. Fatal if you try to burn it and you breath the smoke. The best way to get rid of it is by composting it.
Robin got poison ivy 3 or 4 times. Once a stick got in his shoe and dug deeply. This took a week or two to find out and a month or two to get rid of.
Bill got it during a rainy day. A dog who had been running in the field brushed against him. He got a very dangerous version of it and doctors had to help.
If you touch poison ivy the faster you rub on the cure the better. Not having any Jewel weed use dishwashing soap! We kept plenty handy!

Stopped by a Quail. A quail walked out on the path in front of the car and paced back and forth as if she felt we should back off!

Stopped by a Quail! We had to wait a couple of minutes until she decided to go back into the forest.
