Driving into Salt Springs on Rte 316, you can’t help but notice a big teepee on your right and a big sign with an arrow, “Wooden Nickel - Free Forest Maps.” Turn into the place -- watch out for Ozzie and Harriet, the peacocks -- and gaze in wonder. Take a minute to read the weathered-wood signpost and click your heels together three times. Betcha didn’t know that Land of Oz was this-a-way and Hog Valley t’other. Now step inside this eclectic and wonderful shop to sweet-smelling sage, Native American crafts and a very funny Wise Woman, our friend Nancy of the Wooden Nickel. Pull up a chair or a barrel. It’s time for sitting down and catching up. Part 1.
