Morels are finally here!

Here is a morel, in JJ's hand (for perspective on size)!  Picked
this last week. 

Here JJ is picking the above morel.  Farmer J taught him how
to pick the morel without hurting the underground "fungal system".

Morels are, at first, hard to find but after you find one or two,
you start seeing them all over. 

Farmer J put these blue (and yellow) flags near where he picked
morel mushrooms last year to help find them easier this year.
It worked.  Three mushrooms popped up just left of the flag. 

Quite the hunter/gatherer meal for the boys.  They had morel and
pheasantback mushrooms and some venison sausage from Mr.
Chuck. 

A closer look...
