Kinnikinnick


Kinnikinnick is just one of those words that I like the sound of. It's really a plant, a native Oregon one, at that. It's scientific name is Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, but it's also known as 'Bear-berry' . It's a pretty little plant and we planted a bunch of it at our Mill St. house. Here's a picture of it from my brother's website: Cascade Ramblings, where you can find all sorts of information on hiking in Oregon, as well as plants and animals and fungi. Check it out! :http://www.cascaderamblings.com/
