My computer decided to remember it has a G drive so I can put some pictures up…finally. These pics go with my post from earlier this week.
Brrrr it’s getting cold.
The rain suddenly turns to snow in one block worth of driving. Everyone cheers!
Daddy is an easy target.
We did find some better hills.
Making a snowman at the ski lodge.
The snowman. We left him, made one loop around Heather Meadows and some young men had come and already smashed him to smithereens with their truck. Thanks guys.
Cold happy children
Daddy and seven children giving the thumbs up while doing donuts in the van. My husband still can not resist doing this in the snow. It’s a guy thing, I guess. ;)
A red-capped Russula! A HUGE one! We arrive at Nooksack Falls.
Yeah, yeah, there’s the Falls, now on to the MUSHROOMS!
Another picture perfect, fairy tale book fly agaric, gorgeous!
My sweet children, bless their hearts, ran around picking every neat mushroom they found. We quickly laid rules to leave them IN the ground, for crying out loud, so we can enjoy them next year(and to appease the other tree-huggers that were looking at the children in horror as they picked the mushrooms) The russula above was at least 9 inches across!
My camera used to take beautiful up close pictures…<sigh>
A plate full of edibles and mushrooms to identify when we get home.
See the cute little bright orange one? And the perfectly translucent jelly-like one? And the coral mushroom that is edible? Oh Joy, what a day!

Oh, just look at that snow! I am so jealous. Where I am it just went from 50 back up to 80 and rainy. I hate our fall and winter in the south, sigh.
Those are SO neat! Can you believe that I've never seen a wild mushroom other than the run of the mill ones that pop up in lawns and that I've always smooshed because someone told me they were poisonous. They don't look at all like these ones. What a find!
