Indian Tea

It's been a long time since I was in Alaska, and since I might be going there soon, I got thinking of my experience with indian tea, Rhododendron tomentosum. It happened in Denali National Park, when I was working there for the summer. Many people I knew used the tea now and again because it tastes great. Some would smoke it, or add it to tobacco to improve flavor. I would often chew a few leaves if I was in the woods because it grows everywhere.
Other times if I was hiking, I would chew the leaves to get my mind off of hunger. Most times I just ate the pulp afterwards. Well one day I had just felt like chowing down some, had a pocketful and just kept eating clumps from the softer spot on the stem to the flower pod and leaves. Shortly after, I realized my vision was hazy and I couldn't stop staring at deciduous trees because it was beautiful to watch the leaves play in the wind. Very relaxing and meditative, if not a little rough on the stomach.
I didn't think until now, about 8 years later to look it up. I knew it was something probably toxic. I spent half an hour reading up on it and my experience seems to fit with the toxin ledol present in them.
Now knowing that it could cause paralysis and death in high enough doses, I suppose I'll avoid eating it like that and just have a nice tea instead.
Just thought I'd share. Thanks for listening. :cheers:

In ancient times, when demons roamed with man, They hunted, loved and lost, hand in hand, As time went on, the difference between them faded. You couldn't tell anymore, demons and man were related, and some would say the same, but who would like to claim? In time, Gods had even forgot, Demons, too, once love had sought. In times recent I remember, Once I was a man, In my heart I had an ember, I'll relate the best I can but it was snuffed, one distant December. And yet here I stand, no flesh, no bones, no seed or semen, All that's left is this Demon.

There was this indian guy who was trying to pick up on my girlfriend at the time, and he was trying to get us to come up to the mountain to pick some with him. I didn't trust him though, cuz he kept showing up at our appartment when I wasn't there, and making weird phonecalls to her. I wasn't about to go out in the woods with him and my girlfriend. He said it does give you a nice stoned feeling though.
