Road Trip, Day Twenty Three: Hike at Hidden Villa.








Great morning hike with my cousin. Fungi galore!
Hiked to the top of Elephant Mountain with great views
then down into the bay leaf tree lined valley with a creek
babbling through it. Perfect conditions for mushroom growth.
A long time ago I came to farm camp here at Hidden Villa
and won the award for least disposable lunch.
I brought the whole lunch wrapped in a bandana on a stick,
hobo style. Probably not very politically correct. 
At farm camp we learned about "velcro plants", printing ferns, lanolin.
The smells of Hidden Villa remain the same: 
Bay leaves, compost, and sheep...a delicious combination.
