While I was looking around for the Spirit Bear, Janine spotted this nice looking mushroom.
From what I understand this is an Amanita muscaria. It is a fairly widespread mushroom found throughout much of the world. This poisonous mushroom is also know as Fly Agaric, Fly Amanita or Fly Mushroom.

I like the angle this is shot at Ron. A toad’s eye view.

I like that – toad’s eye view!
Amanita Muscaria is technically poisonous – but it’s not lethal. It’s hallucinogenic.
I eat the stuff. A lot of people do. It doesn’t even make me sick, though some people get nausea and even throw up or have muscle twitches but then feel better (like peyote). 1-3 fresh caps will send you on a cozy little trip to fairyland for about 4-8) hours. They don’t taste bad either. And so pretty with their bright red & white… just thinking about it makes me want to go camping!

Hi Eric,
Hey thanks for the helpful information! I may just have to get up the nerve to try some one of these days.
Thanks,
Ron

Lovely photo. I use them too. They work better than anything I’ve ever taken to overcome insomnia.
The dreams are vivid and you wake up refreshed and remembering them.
Thanks for sharing, Ron.
