Yeah, yuck it up motherfuckers! 



Today I was thinking about Beege whining about only finding stinkhorns in the garden.  I decided I would go out tomorrow, Thanksgiving Day morning, and find a few mushrooms to photograph and bring back here.  And all the while Beege was bitchin' I remembered you talking about finding weilii in dry weather.  Something about last year there was NO rain and .........

Now, I can't promise you I will find a delicious edible, but I can promise you I will find some mushrooms--GUARANDAMNTEE!

Beege, you might not find actives but you never know until you look.  If it were me I would make it a habit of looking out of season just so I could brag about finding them.  You said you found stinkhorns and polypores.  Those are mushrooms.  Maybe they're not exciting to you but they are mushrooms.

Next year, I am going to focus more on jellies, brackets and a few others I have never paid attention to--just to learn more.

I go into the woods with an attitude of "what can I find?"  (other than specific hunts for specific quarry)  I am endlessly, hopelessly curious about my fungal friends.  I want to know everything I can about them.  I hunt for them as if I have lost the most precious thing I ever had, and RARELY am I disappointed.  I always find something.  I believe it is my attitude and my approach that allows me to find things no one else can find, or rarely find.

I'm not bragging here.  I'm just explaining my passion and trying to offer a little advice on how to find the fuckers.

It's one of the reasons I am here.

Sometimes trying is all you can do but without trying you find zero (usually).
