Mushroom Monday

Let's see if blogger will be nice today.

It has really cooled off here. Hard to believe that just a few weeks ago we had to be careful of heat exhaustion. Now we wear jackets in the morning. 55 as I type this. Nice!

The pecans are starting to fall a little faster. I'll probably go get more after I hang the laundry out.

One thing I've noticed is a lot of mushrooms. Not just in the pasture, but in the yard, too.




All those mushrooms are actually a much brighter orange than they appear in the picture. I'm not sure why that is.

Found this next one under a pecan tree. I should have taken a picture when I first saw it, but didn't have a camera with me. The next time I saw it, it looked like this:


Now it looks like this:


Just in time for Halloween, I guess.

I'll post more some other time. Don't want the post too big.

Have a great week!

  2. I think we are to expect a high of 69 today but it cools down at night conciderably. We usually can expect frost by Halloween, time to stock up on firewood.

  4. Sounds like you had a good trip and are now back home! Have you tried Live Writer it works great as a publishing to Blogger too and it is a free download. It will work with Windows but not a Mac:)

  5. The colors are amazing -- is there a color rule as far as eating mushrooms? I haven't any idea on that.

    Enjoy your cooler weather. :)
