They say spending just 20 minutes outside every day will improve your well-being and make you feel more relaxed.
And even better is spending 2 hours hiking the Ice Age Trail in Wisconsin. It's a beautiful place to take a walk!
Autum olive berries are getting ripe. I added some last year to a batch of scones I made and they were quite delicious. There are elderberries that are almost ready to be picked, too. They will get made into jam.
These oyster mushrooms were growing on the same willow tree that we found some growing on last year.
I fried them in a little butter and then made a scramble by adding a couple eggs and some feta cheese. Talk about a delicious breakfast!
With all the rain we have had this year, it has been a great year for mushrooms!
I think that the best way to experience the world is by going outside and exploring it. Learn about a new plant each time you go for a walk so that you can greet it by name the next time you see it!

A nice walk.
I thought the yellow flowers in the photo were pretty, the other photos look good too, but those yellow flowers caught my attention.

The road ditches are full of several different types of these little yellow flowers. They are always an indication that autumn is coming!
I live in a tropical country, so we only have two seasons, so I don't know how it feels to have 4 seasons.
However, I've read that the fall period is often considered to be prone to nostalgic feelings. So I was surprised that these flowers (which I find so pretty in that yellow) were related, I guess it's something like they mark the end of summer.

Walking outdoors is always the best way to clear your mind, as they say.
Anyway, the scenery of the surroundings looks beautiful! And the flowers too
I do love being outdoors!

So, green vegetation. Our vegetation here is already getting dried up because of draught. We have not had rain since early July
It's been a rainy summer here. Everything is lush and green. Unlike our usual summers when everything is dry by now.

Nice find on the oyster mushrooms those are yummy and an easy one to ID which is always good 😅 I'm not familar with autumn olive berries, I'm going to study up on them.
I think they taste a little like pomegranates.
The mushrooms were wonderful! I only wish we found them more often!
Wow this is a wonderful advice melinda thanks for sharing this beautiful post.
I'd love to see some plants that grow around you and hear their names!
Well ill try to do that but I am not good at being a gardener but maybe I should start somewhere perhaps.
Find one new plant and use Google lens to find out it's name!
Ill try to do just that thanks for the solid advice.
Good experience!
Thanks!
Mushrooms! Succulent mushrooms! I bet it was a delicious breakfast.
Thank you Melinda for taking us on this hike.
I wish I had more of them! They were really good!
Very beautiful photography and it is true, going out is not only good for the health of the body but also for the health of the mind. Thank you so much for this promotion of our contest! Have a lovely day :)
Namaste 🙏 Ma'am, beautiful scenery you have captured, I love to visit such natural places, but unfortunately it's very far from my current residence.
Fried oyster mushrooms with eggs look delicious.
I have a query , is this mashroom is same which is shown above over the wood 🤔
Yes. It is the same one. I immersed it in water to make sure that there were no bugs in it and then chopped it up and threw it in the pan!
Wow, it's quite interesting to have immediately after harvest 😀

Quite delicious!
The hiking trail has so many beautiful things along the way, the flowers, the berries and the mushrooms... And then a delicious breakfast..
!INDEED it is a wonderful place to go for a walk.
What a beautiful place for a walk close to nature
I love that you enjoyed an exquisite meal with the mushrooms you foundGood morning lady @melinda010100
They were delicious !INDEED
Never tasted mushroom before but with this homemade breakfast it sure would go well with some hot tea or coffee. Speaking of summer guess u taking advantage of before the August break gets over
I love mushrooms! Summer will be coming to an end here and we will be starting to see signs of autumn. !INDEED
Well in my country no august break it has been raining cat and dog since the summer
We have had a lot of rain this summer, too. I hope it stops before it changes to snow this winter or we will get buried!
!HOPE
Ohh really and here I thought thinking my countries whether is not getting any better.. but is it possible for rain during winter?
