Of cou...The third new thing I've learned today. Of course I've forgotten what the other two were.<br />Inflorescence ...hmm ...and "cottongrass that isn't grass". Maybe this is two new things. But I know about peat bogs.<br />There are large peat bogs near the mouth of the Fraser River in British Columbia. When I lived in the suburbs and commuted to Vancouver, I passed by Burns Bog on my way to work.<br />Once, when my father and I were traveling together to work the 10pm - 6am shift at Pacific Press in Vancouver, we were heading home in the dark and the fog, only to find the bog was on fire.<br />The smoke mixed with the fog and visibility was zero.<br />No one had cellular phones in those days, and we were on the freeway, so we had no way to let Mother know I'd be late taking Dad home. We were glad, however, not to be driving separately. We were several hours late, but not lonely.<br />My car crept along verrry slowly until we were finally able to see where we were going.<br />--KKay L.
