Few things are as common - or as commonly despised - as the subject of this episode.....at least among the lovers of lawns. But there might be more to this ubiquitous rogue than commonly meets the eye, as I think you'll discover in "A Dandy Weed".

As common as dirt? Well, not quite. But dirt is where you'll often find this cosmopolitan critter, and that critter might be closer than you think. Meet the buggyboy, in this episode of Natural Wonders.

   I first met the subject of this episode while sitting in an American Literature class at Cal State Long Beach, when I was 20 years old. That was a long time ago, but something clicked between us that day, something fine and fundemental, and he has been a good friend ever since.

This is my birthday tribute to a very special man - Henry David Thoreau.

Look at a map of the United States, and, out in western Kentucky and northern Tennessee, you will see two long fingers of blue separated by a thin blade of green. Those fingers are lakes, that blade is land, and - taken together - they comprise what is called The Land Between The Lakes. I recently had the chance to spend some time in this little-known natural treasure. Here is what I found.

Of all our holidays, Thanksgiving is the only one whose name tells us exactly what we're supposed to be doing on this special day....and it's not stuffing yourself silly! It's giving thanks or -put another way - taking the time to take an inventory of the good things in your life. In keeping with the spirit of the holiday, then , I'll be doing just that, in this episode of Natural Wonders.

If you've ever attended a high school reunion, you already know that they can be queer, fascinating, nostalgic, poignant....and just a bit disquieting. But haunted? Mine certainly was, and that's only the beginning of the ghosts I'll uncover in this eerie episode of Natural Wonders.

Ok, so what's round and orange and everywhere? Well, if it's autumn then the answer should be as obvious as the reason all those kids in outlandish costumes are suddenly knocking at your door on the last day of October? Yet as common as pumpkins are, this celebrated supersquash has an uncommonly fascinating history, and that's what I'll be exploring in this episode of Natural Wonders.
