Mushrooms


It's a rainy night in Georgia ... and day and night and day. We have had an unusual series of rainy days here. We can't really complain very loudly because we just emerged from a 5 year drought! However, things are feeling a little soggy.
Looking on the bright, well.. light side, it is excellent weather for mushrooms. I have never seen such a variety of shapes, sizes and colors of mushrooms. The woods are still mostly green, with the end of summer gangly look so the mushrooms provide a flash of interest. And what was plain jane yesterday is suddenly of interest because of their unusual colors and shapes.
Maybe that is a metaphor for the low spots in life ... when you have gray skys and monontus days look for the mushrooms. Maybe there are little interesting, different things around that we don't notice on rainy days. I just reorganized some photos, which brought back good memories of a summer trip and my skittish kitten is sleeping quietly on my lap (making it difficult to type!) Maybe these are my mushrooms -
