Barks of Larch

Grab my hand, give me your mind, you're in for a ride on The Search For The Bearded Clam: Mis-Adventures, Love, Friendship, Sex, Horse Tales, And How Not To Hunt And Camp. Most of these stories are true, some contain a tad of fact but the filler is certainly fiction, and a few, pure fiction.



My pen name is LARCH from the eastern version of the western Tamarack tree, thus my stories are Barks of LARCH.
