It Happened About This Time Last Year...

I've been blogging just over a year now and it seems that I am already beginning to repeat myself.

Yesterday, I post about those darn tree rats whom I had complained about last year in September.

Today...

It's about "Giant Mysterious Mushrooms".

I blogged last year about a huge mushroom that I had found at my neighbor Sue's.

This evening, Sue calls and asks if my "camera is handy". The first thing that pops into my mind is:

Of course it is. I'm a blogger aren't I?

*ahem*


Anyway, Sue's camera batteries were non-operational and her granddaughter had run across some unusual mushrooms. And Sue wanted some pictures of them.

Excited at the opportunity for a "photo op", I grabbed my yardstick and my camera and was across the street in less than two minutes.

I was looking for any excuse to get a break from my schoolwork too.

This particular mushroom was BIGGER than last year's!










*Wow*

There were several other mushrooms of the same genre, but they weren't as big.




And here's a neat one...



This mushroom is shaped like a heart...

With right atrial enlargement.

*cough*


Mushrooms really seem to fascinate me.

How they are able to grow from a microscopic spore into something so large almost overnight is amazing to me.


Here's another post from last year with pictures of unusual mushrooms that I found in my yard.

I have discovered that I have seven different types of mushrooms that appear in my lawn.

I have yet to get names for any of them though.

It is possible that there are other varieties in my yard that I have missed seeing. It would be really neat if I discovered some more.

They are all quite interesting, with some actually being beautiful.

Thanks for giving me a "holler" Sue.

It was very enjoyable!

later...
