Mountain Mushroom Mamas (10.17-10.18.20)

 It's taken me over 2 years to finally drive 1.5 hours away to visit Stone Mountain State Park (NC).  ***VIDEO AT THE END***

We started in the visitors center.  I didn't know there was such a variety of moths and butterflies.  The blue one was absolutely beautiful.

And what an archive-an actual working pay phone!!!

To our surprise, the park had an amazingly beautiful waterfall.

We thought we were at the top, but oh no, there's more....

Finally at the summit....

We met Jody & Laura at the beginning of the hike to the summit.  Laura is an adventure bug like us!  Jody, not quite as much, but he was a trooper.

On Sunday we ventured to Durham with Outdoor Afro-Raleigh to learn about mushroom foraging. 

    

                                         Now Kermit's cousin has followed me to the woods.

My hips hurt and my body aches a little, but it was well worth it.
