A friend went to Ocean Shores last weekend and came home with an armful of Azurescens. He said the cold wet weather has them popping early and said he could have had pounds of them but felt conspicuous with all the people around. He said the dune grass was littered with them. We got on the phone and set up three days down there this week. We leave in an hour or so. 

 

I am going to Westport for two days, then to Ocean shores for a day on the way back. We rented a condo right on the beach. Hoping to find the flush still going. Wish me luck ya'll! I could sure use some wild mushroom love! Either way I will be tripping one way or another!

Not a good place to look where we are at. They are doing dune restoration project here. Most of it is new sand, and signs EVERYWHERE saying not to walk on the dune grass :( Oh well we will cruise around this weekend and see what there is to see. PERFECT weather for it all.

There have been some wavy cap sightings a ways inland.

Not the friendliest place to look here. I will take a look tomorrow, better down the road a piece.

Pretty sure Azures don't grow on the East Coast . . .

 

All the same, a little goes a long way.  Happy Hunting Brother!

Wow very unfriendly mushroom hunting weekend. Figured during the week to have lots of quality time on the beach, but where I was at, you were not allowed to walk the dunes, and there were people EVERYWHERE. Went down the road and saw Immigration Customs enforcement and Coast Guard, went to another place and the sheriff was poking around there. Drove over towards Ocean shores and there were cops everywhere I tried to go. I wanted to get out and poke around but after all that I kinda lost my mushroom hunting vibe. Is it usually like that down there? I had the feeling there was something going on to increase the police presense down that way. I will go back down in November when they should be popping the best I hope. Should have went where we usually go, there is dunes everywhere there but told my wife she could pick after looking at places for hours online. She got a nice condo, but damn the beach was small and busy as hell. I'll know better next time. Saw tons of mushrooms though, just not the kind I was looking for. Saw many of them from the car just driving by! Came home to Suillius Boletes growing all over the yard. Too bad they are not really good to eat.
