This guy that writes for the Tribune just published a story the other day about "morel hunting" (i.e. shroom scouring).

Turns out... Missouri is one of the best places for it! He tried a five pound one, even after learning it was poisonous. And he didn't die. What a bad a**.

Here's some info on finding your own 'shrooms... they're not psychadelic, of course, but it's supposed to be pretty fun. And it's summer break - what else are you doing with your time?
