Just a reminder and an info link about the Pacific Northwest Mushroom Festival in Lacey, WA. I know there are alot of people interested in wild mushrooms on this site and this would be a great place to gather information about both wild and commercial mushrooms.

Not sure if anyone from here went to the Mushroom Festival last weekend. There was alot of stuff to see and do as well as lots of food. The 90 degree heat did not stop the people from coming out. The place was packed. Here are a few pics from the event.

I'd have gone if it wouldn't have been on the same day as the HW get together.
-
It was like 8 hours a day for two days. :dunno:
-
I would never go if I had to listen to Cisco Morris. I think he and Steve Irwin should have gotten together and built their own Jungle !! :chuckle:
-
Yeah, but I had stuff to do Sunday and Scott had to pack Sat.
