The weed wasn't weed

So, Will was weeding our backyard and found what looked like weed plants...five one night and another four the next. He was worried that if someone saw it and reported us we'd be charged for growing weed. You read about that stuff in the paper all the time.

He called the police and reported it. They came and inspected the "weed" plant and guess what??? It wasn't weed. Only a plant that highly resembled it.

So of course he was embarassed that he had called and we got a chuckle out of it when the officer said, "This isn't weed, it's just a weed."

Hardy ha ha.

That kind of thing happens up here in the mountains all the time. People grow weed on other peoples' property or even in the national forest so they won't get caught with it.

i knew a couple of guys in highschool that grew it by the interstate, when they "worked" it they would simply pull the car up, toss up the hood & one would "tinker" with the motor & the other would go do whatever needed to be done...
