Morel Season

My friend Miklos is an amazing guy.  He's a sculptor and a fantastic cook.  This year he finally took me with him on an annual foraging expedition.  Our prey was stealthy. We went foraging for morel mushrooms in the wilds of Illinois.  I won't say exactly where we did it, as foraging grounds are a prized and guarded secret, but i will say that we were mighty successful.  We found lots of mushrooms and had a ton of fun doing it.













3 Feet High And Rising

This spring and early summer has been an extremely wet one in Illinois.  As the flood waters rose closer, there was no excitement for the new waterfront property.  Luckily the waters receded.
