Okay, the weird part about Devil's Road. (Cossart Road in Chadds Ford, PA)

 

The trees in some areas all grow out away from the road. Supposedly, it is because the trees are trying to get away from the evil of the Cult House.

April 13: Came across this small budded twig near the Staithe at Bungay. Nothing special you might say...but this has fallen from a black poplar. And what's so special about this tree, you may ask? Well tree lovers speak about it in reverential tones: John Constable, the famous English landscape artist, immortalised it in many of his paintings of the Suffolk countryside. It's a majestic tree, which likes to grow near water and can reach heights of up to 100ft. But because of its quirky pollination habits, it's becoming quite rare.

Its timber was much prized pre-industrial revolution, providing wood for a range of essentials from matches and match boxes to wooden clogs and fruit boxes.

These buds fell from a tree, near the Riverside Centre, which must be 70ft tall, and is covered in ivy. The buds reveal that it's a male poplar with crimson catkins; green female catkins ripen on separate trees. The buds are sometimes known as devil's fingers...and it's said to be unlucky to pick up fallen twigs. Oooh, I'm not superstitious but I feel compelled to return the twig from whence it came. Mustn't tempt fate!

Chapman Falls is almost as famous for a fascinating legend involving Satan as it is known as a popular state park day-trip destination. Posted on a billboard at the site is a Puritan belief that Satan once walked along the Eightmile River and became infuriated as his tail became wet. To express his anger, he scampered up to the falls and stomped his hooves on each section of the falls, leaving scars in the boulders of the natural feature the falls descend over. This is where Chapman Falls derives its alternative name, Devils Hopyard.

Devil woman's delight: a vintage Halloween collection

Devils Tower rises above the surrounding grassland and Ponderosa pine forests like a rocky sentinel. Northern Plains tribes have worshipped near this remarkable geologic formation for thousands of years. Fur trappers, explorers, and settlers alike were awed by the tower's majesty. In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt established Devils Tower as our nation's first national monument. Many have gazed at the Tower and wondered, "How did this amazing formation form?"

This is made using a simplicity pattern with a basic body suit and my husband drew up the wing pattern for me as well as the collar.

The Devil drives a red Mercedes Benz van... and also has a market stall at Loughborough on a Friday.

 

Even the Prince of Darkness has to scratch a living (sort of).

Q: What kind of car would the Devil drive?

 

A: Depends - is the devil a classy, refined devil? He could have a Aston Martin DBS or maybe a rolls royce phantom. If you're looking for something just downright sinister though check out the Lamborghini Reventon.

 

A: A Bugatti Veyron. The Super Sport version of the Veyron is the fastest street-legal production car in the world, with a top speed of 431 km/h (268 mph). Nothing else could interest the Devil like this car. And it's good looking too. The cost per each car is between 2 and 3 million US dollars.

 

A: A Red Prius. The devil loves irony.

Devil's Food, from one of the classes I taught (International Great Cakes)

Local folklore explains the valley as the work of the devil. The legend holds that the devil was digging a trench to the sea to flood the many churches in Sussex. The digging disturbed an old woman who lit a candle, causing a rooster to crow, making the devil believe the morning was fast approaching. The devil then fled, leaving his trench uncompleted.

 

Another story holds that rather than digging to flood the county, he was simply in a huge goatlike form, intending to crush the surrounding area. He smelt the tang of salt water in the wind, and fearing his coat would get damp (for he is vain to the point of sin), he fled leaving nothing but a hoof-print, now known as Devil's Dyke.

This was one of the cool things we discovered on our trip, "Devil's Club" (Oplopanax horridus). It's sort of related to American Ginseng and the Native Americans in the region traditionally used in a lot of medicines. I have some Devil's Club salve and it does help with my shoulder pain.
