Influences

Recognition should be given to all those who have gone before; family members, friends, and others that may have influenced me in their own quiet way.

Special recogition should go to my father Kenneth (Kenny to all who knew him) and my grandfathers Selby and Chester (Jake), both born in the 1890s. All of these gentlemen influenced me in their own way...with time fishing, hunting, trapping, or just time spent togeher.....

Late Summer Mushrooms

 Once again it has been too long since I was here. I now have more spare time, so hoping to somewhat regularly update and create a new post. 

Here are some recent photos from hiking and late summer mushrooms. Some are edible and some not. I do pick and consume mushrooms that I am confident of the identity. However, some that are edible do not really have much flavor, so I normally pass those by. 

Oyster Mushrooms

A nice bunch of Oyster Mushrooms. I gathered some of these, took home, cooked, and ate them. 




Turkey Tail Mushrooms. These are said to have medicinal and cancer fighting properties. Please do your own research. 




Crown Tipped Coral Mushroom







Chicken of the Woods - this came home with me and was eaten. 



Oyster Mushrooms - these were too high on tree to reach, but I did gather some that were lower.
