Mushroom Village

I covered the launch of a partnership between Bevill State Community College and Mercedes-Benz this morning. It was a big deal for this community. Students who go through the co-op program have an opportunity to train with the Mercedes plant in Vance, Alabama and get jobs that pay more than most Liberal Arts graduates.  It's a big deal for our community. 

After the event, I came home to work at my office here. I had several stories that were on the cusp of being print-worthy so I tapped keys.

Jilda stuck her head in the door and asked if she could interest me in a brisk walk. It was still chilly outside, but the sun was out and a walk sounded good.

On the first lap, Jilda pointed out a photo op that I had missed. It was a mushroom village that appeared overnight. I thought mushroom liked warm wet weather, but apparently, there are some that wear sweaters.

  2. A brisk walk was a good idea to break up too much key tapping. I love looking at mushrooms. They are like flower as they come in so many sizes,shapes and colors.

  4. Those Co-op programs are great. Lucky for the young people in your community. Amazing that those tiny mushrooms grows in the cold. Jilda is very observant.
    Stay warm.
