Fungi oh my!

In Health and Human Disease we learned about fungi last week. I think I was the only student in the lecture hall actually excited to learn about fungi. Why? Because on all the hikes around here you see so many different types of fungi! After a long week of class and huge rains, I got away to the woods on Saturday with three of my classmates, Clark, Aria, and Joe. It was great fun, there was snow, fungi, and raging rivers! What more could we ask for? Below is one of the coolest fungus I've seen yet, it was growing a fallen redwood tree.

Beginning to look like Spring in San Francisco


Update: A few minutes after this lovely photo of the blooming flowers, it started to rain. On me. So not quite spring time yet!
