Wondrous Apparitions, Provided by Magicians.

Yesterday it was nice enough out that the three human denizens of EHQ and their intrepid canine companion set off in the early evening in search of fungus. It seemed promising -- the temperature was right, it had rained significantly in the last week (though not significantly enough to flood the Den of Iniquity), the trees were in bloom, the may-apples were up. We went down the river trails near the house, where the ground was reasonably moist. But no mushrooms mushroomed. triadruid found two LBMs, but nothing else.

It was put forth that it's a shame we don't live somewhere where truffles grow, since the chaos hound has natural predilections for digging, and for finding things that are round and/or stinky. He'd be an ideal truffle pig. He'd eat the truffles before we could get to them, but that's another issue entirely.

So the quest for fungus continues. Perhaps we will have some time for mushroom hunting when we're out playing with the druids at the park later.

Also, ( nightmares. )

Went back to the WC doctor today with my plague. They told me they were not authorized to treat me for illness unrelated to my injury, so did nothing for me. They did take a look at the tetanus vac injection site, and said it looked normal, so that's good.

In non-injury/illness-related news, there is hot this week, and there should be rain for a few days, which means MUSHROOMS! Yay, mushrooms! And here we are, next to all those trails and riverbeds. :) Life is rough.
