Mushrooming


Like helmeted soldiers they pop up to about 4".


Then their helmets become crumb littered tables.


Finally the tabletop gets too top heavy...
legs start buckling
and tabletop tips and splits.


Other mushrooms make your mouth water
looking like honeycomb sugar candy underneath.

  2. What wonderful photos! Some of my mother's favorite childhood memories are of going mushrooming with her grandfather. They would wear their sweatshirts inside out for luck.
