ALL KINDS

Our friends noticed it too – there were all kinds of mushrooms they weren’t used to seeing around here.

 

GNOMES

Mushrooms were marching off into the distance like chummy little gnomes.

 

PRETTY PARASOLS

The prettier mushrooms were begging to be picked and eaten but we weren’t falling for it.
