    Default Morels



    My friend Sam Delventhal was out 8 hours today searching for morels. Sam scored 12 pounds. He stopped by to give me a pound tonight. The going rate at the local gas stations is 20 dollars a pound. The gas stations sell them for 25-28 pounds. This is quite normal until the Morel Mushroom Days are finished this weekend in Muscoda. I have seen them going for 30-35 dollars a pound at the Madison Farmer's Market. Sam says there is about 10 more days of morel hunting left.

    Those are some fine looking morels you've got there.

    Normally, I would be in Montana by this time of the year and looking for morels myself right about now, but this year we aren't leaving our home in PA to go there for the summer until the end of next week. I don't know if it will be too late to find any by the time we get there.

    I've always suspected that Len is a man of high morel character...

    Those are magnificent!

    Unfortunately, I don't believe that we have any morels in Louisiana, we have to make do with Chanterelles...
