The Results of the Mushroom Hunt, '09

Things went well this morning. I drove, and we didn't die. The woods were a little too travelled to play "Blair Witch Project", but i did find a nice stick for beating away the wolves and boars with. In fact, boar-signs were everywhere - quite exciting for Americans, because we don't have many wild pigs running around outside of D.C.

It's quite clear from the photo that i fit right in with the other woodland creatures. This was an accident. I'm wearing my hat smurf-fashion, pushing my ears out, and i've got my over-sized snowboarding jacket which once belonged to an absent-minded hitch-hiker. The mushroom Petya is holding is edible, will be eaten, is being peeled by my wife as i write this. It looks like we hunted up around 300+ grams of shroomage. Whoever said there's no such thing as a free lunch didn't spend enough time sniffing around meadows and forest floors.
