Morels in Oregon























What a great time to reunite family!  Mushrooms came early this year and since we hunt at about 4500 ft. elevation,  we get all kinds of weather but poison oak does not grow at this elevation!!!  And we always hope we find morels when everyone gets here.  And, . . .this year was better than usual!  Roly & Candy came from Texas,  Dan, Sheila and Jaime came from Portland,  Jana from Eugene, and Lori Adam and I led the crew into the beautiful Oregon forest!  Mist and slight drizzle added to the adventure.  After about 4 hours and a tailgate lunch,  we accumulated 10 pounds of wonderful morels!  We had enough to pile them high on grilled hamburgers!  This is the best burger topper that I have ever tasted! This is soo tasty you don't need catsup or mustard!  We missed Paul and the grand kids who had other commitments.  Having all four of our kids and their spouses was  the best treat of all for Esther and I.  We thank God every day for our family!
