Yes, I just got off the phone with poison control, and googling plants with my Mom. I had just finished a glorious 50 mile bike ride in spectacular fall weather, and was pleased that I didn't feel annihilated after being benched for 2 month. Sept was sick sick sickness and October was all celebrations. Mr. H's Grandad's 90th, My 36th, Sister-in-law K's 30th, my Mom's 60th (hence the Yosemite trip), and then Brother-in-law G and J's wedding!
So, it would appear Changa ate a Madrone fruit. I drove back to the park around the corner where Chispa had collected the offending fruit, photographed it, and my Mom and I googled. The close-up pic is from Wikipedia. The less-close-up pic is from the actual bush Changa snacked samples from. Good times. It's a good thing most plants aren't fatal upon eating one berry. Eesh.
We are enjoying the non-event-ness (minus the hazardous Madrone fruit consumption incident) of this weekend. Sometimes it's good to be a little less busy here and there, even for me. Happy Fall everyone!
