Reminds me of bacon : )

On 7 September 2015, I went for a walk at Shannon Terrace in Fish Creek Park. I never seem to go for walks on my own anymore, but I really need to do more walking for health reasons. After about four days of rain, I made myself go on this walk and saw more than I was expecting to see, including a few reasonably photogenic mushrooms. This one, growing on a fallen log in the forest, made me think of thick-cut bacon! Far too much "fat" on it for my liking. The only time I have bacon (back bacon) is at Christmas time, when I might make bacon rolls.

Just as I was leaving the park, I noticed the dark clouds rolling in and I wasn't sure if some Mammatus clouds (sagging pouch-like structures) were forming. Most unlikely, but I wanted to be sure, so drove out towards the SW edge of the city. None to be seen, but it still felt good to see the very distant mountains. A word of warning: if you don't like potholes (and I mean a lot of potholes!), avoid driving along 146th St (that then becomes 69th, eventually getting on to 22X)!
