5-7-2011



We're still in the mode where all we do (other than make fires in my backyard) is go running (which is impossible to take pictures of...so you can just imagine how funny I looked after running seven miles this morning), find mushrooms in the woods, take pictures of them, and go on Cheeseburger Tour. So yeah, that's pretty much all I have pictures of. I guess this is kind of artsy and unrelated.

Today's Cheeseburger Tour is visiting Joey's South Side Burgers. We didn't know anything about this place before going there, but we thought it looked cool driving by so we figured it would be a good place to try. It is. I had an "All American" burger, and it was. Their burgers are simple, good quality beef with standard toppings...but made really well. A lot better than their onion rings, but I'm not holding that against them. I would definitely go back again.

Time for a million picutures of mushrooms:
I found these all by myself.
Nicole found this
This guy is little.
Sun beam.
Conjoined twins.
Really, they grow that way.
Hiding one.
Nicole is engaged to a mushroom.
I like how the grey ones look the best...especially when there are a lot of them.
I use my knife for scale when I find giant ones.
Bunches.
The blond ones are coming soon.

This is kind of interesting (to me anyway). You can dehydrate morels and they pretty much can last forever in their dried out state (even if they kind of look like shrunken heads.


Also, since I'm mostly shooting film in my Leica on the weekends, I took the opportunity to take a picture of my whole beloved Nikon arsenal all together.
