Mushrooms

14 October 2012
I left at 6.15am. A cold star-lit morning with Venus and Jupiter and a lazy crescent moon my companions.
It was a stunning sunrise. Some Loganberries and Blackberries helped me on my way. I looked down from Gover Hill and a soft mist had descended into the Bourne valley toward Shipbourne. I picked some bulbous mushrooms to try (they checked out OK!) Doris Broad's bench was frosty! The Sun was on my back for breakfast at 8.15am.
Toward Basted Mill, there was a woodland mushroom as big as a dinner plate but there was no room in my bag, what with Apples, Damsons, Cobnuts and such-like. Shame!
My second break was at Ightham Mote in the Sun. And then I walked back home via Shipbourne with Buzzards crying above. A gorgeous morning for a walk (my bag a bit heavy now!).
