    Default Mushrooms

    I know there are a bunch of mushrooms that grow in the wild, I can tell which are good to eat and those that are poisionous that grow in our area, I'm looking for a good book on Mushroom Identification and plants also. My dad has all the Tom Brown books but I don't like them cause they got too many dumb stories in them on when he was kid, I just wana learn the plants.
    Anyone know any good mushroom books.

    There is no greater solitude than that of the Tracker in the forest, unless perhaps it's that of the wolf in the wilderness.

    Trooper, remind him of who's going to be saying yay or nay to 'pulling the plug' when he's 120 years old, toothless and being spoonfed pablum by some hot nurse that he's way to feeble to make a grab for....how's that for dictatorship pal?
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

    give it 2 more years. then you will believe you know everything in the world. and only learn the hard way.. at least thats how i was... then after another couple years you will see that you never stop learning.
    i have allot of scares to remind me to lessen to what others know
    If you see a man covered in tattoos in the mountains with old gear duct taped together, and he looks like he has not seen a city in many years...... well your wrong, thats just me pulling a weekend trip.

    Hey, RDW, didn't you misspell your user name? Shouldn't that be WD40? Slick!
