While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!
In the summer of Ferdinand P. Von Wrangell in
1830 he made a long and difficult journey
across Siberia accompanied by his wife and
infant daughter, to cross the North Pacific to
New Archangel (Sitka). This was Von Wrangell's
third visit to Russian-America. In 1836 he
returned to Russia by way of Mexico. He tried
unsuccessfully to negotiate and enlargement of
Russian possessions in California. He visited
the tribes of Northern California during this
trip.
