I think of Ai-chan when I pass by this spot, especially when the dandelions have sprung. Back on April 18, 2010 I photographed Ai at this very place, after we recorded her version of "Suteki de Ne" (from Final Fantasy) in Bigfoot (at the nearby Trailer Inns RV Park). Here is the link to that memorable day:

With the approach of Autum mushrooms will soon spring forth, so we took a little walk near the Microsoft Commons to see if any were out yet. It's still a bit too early, but we did locate an interesting cluster of
puffball mushrooms... Photo-Journal...
