I came home from work early this morning and decided to take Molly on a walk down by "Old Man Kelsey's Pond." (For the uneducated that is a reference to a scene involving Ernest T. Bass from the Andy Griffith Show).
We had been out for about 15-20 minutes and we walk down by a stand of bamboo at the end of the lake. Molly is nibbling on some grass and stuff like she always does and she starts nibbling on this plant. She is spending longer than normal on this plant while I am trying to urge her to move on to something else.
I take a look at this plant and I am thinking this looks oddly familiar. It has 5 leaves, it is shaped in a particular pattern, and I am thinking "I wonder....."
Since I am not familiar with marijuana growing in its natural habitat or what it looks like in a sandwich bag, I took a picture and sent it to a female friend I work with who is more familiar with marijuana in both of its states. For the purposes of this blog, we will call her the Pothead Hooch.
Within a few minutes her reply came back and it was "Poison Ivy." She must have taken a second look before I could respond and texted me again and said "Wait a min..." Upon further inspection she wanted me to "Dig that shit up and plant it in a pot with Miracle Gro!" My answer was "and put it on my balcony right?" Molly wanted me to invest in some rolling papers after she got some snacks and for some reason she slept most of the morning.
