South Beach SP~Oregon ~MUshRoOmS!

We had a great campsite in South Beach State Park

not only was it fairly deserted…

but…also…Wherever I would walk~

Mushrooms…

Amanita Muscaria…

I think this is a young Amanita muscaria

Some type of suillus..

Have not Identified this yet..

Lactarius of some sort?

Very plentiful in this park.

I took a walk out to the ocean..

over the dunes..

A short quarter mile walk from the campground..

Ahh..

Just a few people on this big beach..

It was evening and the shadows were long..

I take the path back to the campground..

Stopping along the way to admire the plate sized Amanitas..

Golden crowned kinglets serenaded me..

As I looked down..

Lactarius deliciosus  

 Saffron milk cap, Red pine mushroom

More Amanitas..

Hundreds of Shaggy Mane dot a gravel path in the campground.

I picked a few for dinner..

and headed back to our campsite..

Past..

More

mushrooms…

We are now a bit further south in Florence…

Will look for more surprises tomorrow..

Montana to Oregon ~ on the road

We left Montana Sunday morning and headed west to Oregon.

We avoided the incoming snow storm.

Homey doesn't do snow.

  sagebrush

Butte, Montana

Quick shot out the side window..

Big valley

I loved this rock formation..

Bear with me… I took a few photos of it..

Cool!

Awesome rocks…

More interesting rock formations.

It was a very scenic trip on I-90

Turn after turn..

Beauty..

Lots of gold..

and mountains..

Mountains dripping golden..

Idaho!

Coeur d'Alene

Washington

Rain…

Following the Columbia river to Portland

Time to pick some mushrooms!

A walk around the campground ..
