Guess you know the right people, Jose!!!!!!!!!!! :P :P

Most of our states will let you grow opium poppies, legally (I don't know if all do). You can only buy a certain amount, of course, but they are one of the most beautiful poppies that you can find.

Mikeofaustin,

I guess it depends on the brand of PR rum. The dark is definitely NOT as good as the clear, imo. Of course, the clear has a process that takes 3 times longer than the dark.

Beth, once when I was up at the Colorados, the spine of the sierras between Sinaloa and Durango, helping my friend start up his mine. La Bert and I went for a short drive to check on the status of one of the trucks that had thrown a rock through its radiator.

This area is perhaps 6 -8000 ft with a 75 - 80 degree drop off giving a fantastic view to the west of some 900 sq miles. On the way back as we passed a clear area to the west, we decided to take some pictures of the view.

A short walk through the pines brought us to a knoll. The knoll was surrounded by a triple barbed wire fence. I assumed that someone was going to construct a home there. Inside of the fence, the grass was growing nicely, it was perhaps 2 - 3" high.

So, to take a short cut, I crawled through the fence and cut across the small field, Bert followed me. We admired the view for a while, then crossed the grassy area again going back to the car. Bert suddenly stopped and in a hushed voice said "Jo, aren't these the same plants that you showed me before"? I looked closer and sure enough, we had been tromping down some pore enterprising guy's lil Opium poppies.

I imagine that the owner was sitting out in the brush with a disgusted look, watching us through his binoculars. Fortunately they all knew us because of the mine and didn't shoot..

Incidentally, whenever the soldiers came up on a drug bust, we / they always knew a few days ahead of time and we had between 10 - 20 free laborers working for us. hehehe

How else to explain a new Bronco, gold watches, and chains etc while living in a one room thatched hut with perhaps a lonely pig and a few chickens wandering in and out.

You will be up there some day soon Beth, I'll also show you where we were under siege by bandits for a few days. Actually I was only shot at once.

Good story. Sounds like the time my brother went out into a field late at night and saw a car sitting in the distance. This was a FULL field. He left very quickly.

that might of saved his life.

Re: "Have you been smoking pot?", She asked me tonight.

anybody ever find POT while mding?

We see it from time to time up in the mountains. If its way isolated and off a property line we just go around but we always let them know it has been seen and put flagging tape on it so they get paranoid. If its close to an area I frequent and they are growing it on me I will cut it down as a warning. They will just move to another area next year but guarantee it wont be that one I have found water systems off springs, flower pots on bluffs crazy stuff. You can smell it sometimes before you see it. You have to be careful when in the back woods. I do not care so much about the pot growers its the trash making meth that makes me nervous. I would rather see timber rattlers and copper heads.

Only one time - and I really think it was a self-seeded little plot that someone had once grown pot on. It only had 3 or 4 plants that were in various stages of growth, and scattered.

Re: "Have you been smoking pot?", She asked me tonight.

smoking is bad, period. I quit smoking 12 years ago.
the active ingredient in pot is THC, 20 years ago 3-4 % content was considered potent, now, the average content
is 18 - 20 % THC. it's getting stronger but is not physically addictive, like heroin or cocaine

That's what vaporizors are for
