Mushroom milestone

If you only knew what I went through today to get some mushroom photos!!! I have a phobia of driving, but finally pushed myself to definitely get out of my "comfort zone". I had been to Brown-Lowery Provincial Park (southwest of the city) a handful of times before and vowed I would never drive there or go walking there, on my own. Friend, Doug, had driven me there many weeks ago (thank you so much!) and then we went back with another friend, so I was hoping that these trips would be enough to make me go there myself, despite my fear. And I SO wanted to search for mushrooms to photograph. Today was the day - I finally did it! I have to admit that, despite my careful look at a very rough trail map, I still ended up doing my walk on a different trail through the dense forest from what I thought I was on, LOL! The important thing is that, not only did I do it, but I even found my way back home, ha, ha.
