(I am enjoying these photo posts to set the season; never fear, writing will return soon).
I assume any reader knows me; others, in order of appearance: Lib, daughter-in-law Niki Mazzia Frishman, Connie Farmer, Della and Simon Armijo (the only other "shroomers" in two counties), who have also rebuilt about half of our house so far, and Greg Vivian, Lib's former boss, a Vermonter who took naturally to mushrooming.

So the rains have arrived? Those are fantastic looking mushrooms. It's been pretty dry here the past week, but thundershowers yesterday should help. I had good weekend two weeks ago after it rained. Chants were flushing fairly well and I pickled a couple of pounds. Had a scary mushroom experience yesterday dog walking my Brits when my 17 week old Willa scarfed up a brownish parasol shaped mushroom which I couldn't id. She slurped the damn thing down like a raw oyster. Too fast for me to do anything and she was on a leash. I ended up taking her to the vet. I tried using peroxide 3% solution as an emetic, but she had just eaten and the peroxide didn't foam in her stomach according to the vet. I left her for observation and she is doing fine. Let us know how the harvest goes. Hopefully there will be plenty of fungi among thy. Gil
They have been spotty but the best in a few years, and we have reports...
Steve,
Curious about the bolt action and nice looking pack on the floor boards in Mycology?
Rifle an old Mauser in .270, long gone; pack a Filson, which has gone everywhere from Montana to Provence to Mongolia. I sent it in once to replace a strap and they wanted to replace all of if free. I was indignant.
