Mushroom Journal - Hunt I, II, III, and IV

Thursday evening, Keane headed out to the woods and sent me a photo of a group of mushrooms shortly after.  I quickly put the supper on hold, and joined him in collecting our first mushrooms of the year.  We found a total of 36.  I will call this spot our Premiere Draw, as they are always the first place we look for and find mushrooms each season.



On Friday, we went out again, to the Buck Draw, we will call it after a bow hunting experience Keane and I shared.  We found 87 mushrooms! 


We then went to the Sister Draw (it's near and dear to the Buck Draw), and found 12 more mushrooms -- totaling 99 mushrooms that we found in a short period of time.


Then on Saturday, Keane took a walk in Gump's Draw and found 8 mushrooms.  Later that day, we went back to Premiere Draw and found 10 more mushrooms.


Sunday, we worked on building a fence for Keane's dad, and then went home and took a short nap.  We woke up (too soon, if you ask me) and storms were rolling in.  We decided to go for a little mushroom hunt before the rain came.  We were heading back to the Buck Draw, and found 2 mushrooms on our way.  We started to get rained on, so that is all we ended up finding.



Our Total Mushroom Count for 2014 - 155


Speaking of finding things in the wild, I found three four-leaf clovers in the matter of a couple minutes, while Keane was tilling the garden.  I also found a five-leaf clover yesterday, but didn't take a picture of it.  My sister and I found hundreds of these when we were younger, and looks like I still have the Luck of the Irish!
