Book! Beautiful! Book!

[wildedibles]

It was really neat my hubby showed me this arrow head and said "u will never guess where I found this?"

I looked and said "wow thats neat where?"

 

He told me he found it near the wood pile in the basement well I have cleaned and cleaned the basement from time to time and never seen that but we have wood stored in our basement so I am guessing that this arrow head was once stuck in a tree and that tree is now in the wood stove after being choped up even more so I could lift the smaller blocks ;)

 

 

Now my Dad gets the fire wood from Algonquin park in Ontario and this is native territory so easily it could have come from the trees :) what a gift from the trees a warrior symbol :) very much needed for me and my family :)

 

I am curious I have seen them out of black rock obsidian? i think but never out of this white rock it kinda looks like lime stone but doesnt feel like it I am interested in this rock and what it is ? anyone with info I would appreciate it :)

[Skywatcher]

So cool!!!

It must be a hard stone that will Chip with a sharp, glassy edge to use for arrowheads. Most common is flints or obsidians. This looks like a flint, which comes in many colors but feels smooth and slick.

Thanks buddy :) ......looked it up further with your info and found some interesting things :)

 

 

I wanted to share a hunt from 2013 Aug with all this dark winter talk I wanted to share something that helps me with my pain and sometimes when I cannot take it anymore the woods calls to me :)

Come play wild and free ; )

 

The sun on my face and the brese threw the trees :) the sounds of the birds and chipys :) all my dear friends that calm me :) my hubby has learned that if I am busy and busy and bitchy take me away to the woods and I will feel much better

 

 

I love sharing my pictures with all of you but too much computer work hurts too so I will work a bit at a time it is something I love so I will keep doing it anyway :) just take breaks to stretch ;)

 

The woods is calling to me man it has been way too long but I will sneak up and be a little wild in the snow :) maybe make a snow angel : )

 

 

[wildedibles]

This is the first mushroom group we found on the hunt some orange Lactarius Later I have some pictures of it bleeding orange

 

and next green Russulia <spelling? .... I love the color

and a close up

Some metallic shine to them these r found beside a road and in the run off zone so they r not suitable for collecting ...mushrooms can absorb heavy metals some can anyway and beside a road in the run off this could contain some dangerous levels of metals maybe? so I just had a nice look at them I notice in areas like this the mushrooms do have a shine to them in the sun if they get a lot of sun they become a gold color almost ....

 

This one I think is an Amanita I left it alone I didnt want to dig it up and end it for the mushroom just so I can check out a bulb on a mushroom I don't want to eat ;)

 

Some blueberry bushes :) and false Lilly of the valley and baby maple trees :) and the blurry little mushroom is a Lactarius

 

some interesting mushrooms they were everywhere on the trail

and a close up

 

:) This WILD HUNT isnt over I have some really cool plants and mushroom pictures to show : )

Thanks for sharing something with me that helps me so much I love the woods and all the wild things in it :)
