I see them all over now but I don't know anything about mushrooms. My parents generation did not use them here in this country. I saw this one outside mums nursing home. Also the ones on the third picture.
Before I went in I took a little walk. Pictures.

I walked into a street almost in the center of town where no one every goes without living there or visiting there. It was a world of it's own, very quiet and serene. I remember those old pots that were used for boiling the laundry. Suits well as a flowerpot.

Suddenly I saw this old garage with a grass roof and a tree growing there. The tree has planted it self there, I am sure.

    skald- How neat - I've never seen a garage with a grass roof. Was the grass intentional? 
  • skald said on Sep 15, 2008....
    Beyond.  Yes, the grass but not the tree. Our old farm houses were with grass roofs. Made out of what we call turf and some old houses, that is  very few have a grass roof as a remainder of this building style.

    As you can see the garage is old and I think the builder has decided to have a roof like that.

    There are houses in the Faeroe Islands too with grass roofs. They isolate well and are warm.

    Intersting stuff!  I am amazed at the varieties of mushrooms all over the world.  I have never seen one at all like this before, not even in a picture.  Looks like an egg!  I have seen these funny looking orange ones that look like a "male part" that I won't mention---and they stink to high heaven!  (saw these in South Carolina, and don't know where else they grow.)  I like the old "washtub" as we call them here--but ours didn't have legs.  And the grass roof is pretty cool, too!

    Hi Skald - i would love to have a garage like that over here.If I played golf.I would swing a ball or two off the top on weekends.(The complex that i stay in is halfway down a valley !)
  • skald said on Sep 15, 2008....
    Wombie.  You should see me laughing about that obscene mushroom you mentioned. lol I've never seen it. Yes the tree on the roof is  cool.
    Cuppa. Well maybe you just build a garage like that and play golf on the roof.

    skald:  You should have seen my face the first time I saw one growing in the back yard there!  I stomped on it, and that's when this horrible smell came out.  I will look around and see if I can find a picture of one on the internet.  No idea what the name of them are.

    The ones I saw were solid orange, though, and also a bit more"defined" in shape, to make it look exactly like and orange thingy!

    Wombie.  Oh my god, I am laughing. I had no idea that such a thing existed. But it is strange how things in the nature can be so much a like each other. lol Thanks Wombie

    Wombat.  Sure did. lol

    Very unusual shape for a mushroom. Are they edible?
     
    Wombats' photo of the mushroom is very eeeky ? Certainly not meant for a blow job.
  • skald said on Sep 16, 2008....
    Scipio. Would not like to eat Wombies mushroom. I don't know if it is eatable.
