Welcome to Wonderhussy Adventure #397 Date of Adventure: 2/8/20
Can we just stop and take a minute to appreciate the ubiquitous but under-appreciated creosote bush?! These things are ALL over the Mojave Desert -- so much so that a landscape covered in them is often said to be "barren." But did you know the creosote bush is one of the longest-living organisms on Earth? That it can survive -- and HAS survived -- an atomic blast?! And that it contains a secret antioxidant used to treat all manner of viral diseases??? Forget love; LET'S TALK ABOUT CREOSOTE!
