"Fun Hatter Guy"
While wandering in the woods a few years ago I seen an older gentleman wearing a hat with oyster, bolete, pheasant back, sulphur shelf, shaggy mane, honey and hen of the woods mushrooms.There was a chipmunk on his shoulder, a ruffed grouse on the top of his hat and a small owl peeking from inside the tree stump hat. He came running up to me and held in his hands a beautiful group of morel mushrooms. He said that I could have the morels if I respected the forested land and treated it with kindness. As soon as I said yes, he smiled, told me to have fun and quickly disappeared leaving me holding the handful of morels.
To this day I love telling my grandchildren the story of the day I met the "Fun Hatter Guy", as in fungi.
