Two years ago, I visited a friend's farm in New Hampshire and I had a bit of a "Charlotte's Web" experience.
This weekend, I had to be out east for a conference, and it provided an opportunity to head back to New Hampshire for some farm fun. Photos below.

Puffball mushroom, a little past its prime. There was a whole fairy ring of these guys, but they were all about a day beyond the edible stage. We found a few other puffballs that were good, plus a parasol mushroom.
And then there are all the flowers...
And the frogs...
