Morning of the foray starts with some hot coffee and damp, cool air.	Ken prepares for a damp walk.	Forayers sign in quickly.
Linda and crew still working on the desert mushrooms. Want to know what these actually are? Well show up at the Fall foray, Linda makes these every year.	Some edibles found before the foray begins.	Another edible, be careful when picking (identifying).
A little mushroom art.	Closer view.	Hot coffee or cold beer, its a great start to the day.
Roger registers recent representative.	Looks like the foray will start soon.	Well maybe after some more breakfast.
What no bunnie ears?	Richard demonstrates a important technique to freeze a fungi in place before picking; the "Evil Finger". When applied correctly, the mushroom will remain immobile so that you can harvest it without all that running about.	Richard explains the foray.
Linda pitches in.	She knows where they hide.	Two groups form up.
Off one group heads to the "lower 40".	Group two heads into the other woods.	They move like ghosts through the wooded glens.
First finds!	After the foray, hot food!	The foray can be dry or cold or wet, but the food is always great.
