Although the weather’s been a bit variable (a touch of snow on Tuesday) it’s about time to look for morel mushrooms. Here’s a happy picture of Martin on the woodland trail. I like to see the little kid out in the big world, happy, singing, and safe, even at a distance from his parents.

It wasn’t a good outing as far as finding mushrooms goes – only a small handfull of small morels, but it is nice to get out and let the kids run and explore.

Here’s a group of walnut leaves popping out of their big bud (no consultation with in-house botanist on this description!).
