      @@EdibleWildFood-1We are both doing well. We have stepped back from the UA-cam channel, at least for now. We had been doing the channel for 12 years at the time we did our last video over a year ago. It is good to see your channel is still going strong. Hope you and your loved ones are doing well.

      @@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival Glad to hear you are both well. My family are all healthy and I am grateful. I am hoping to get to Alaska next year. I want to take a cruise from Vancouver - one way - so I can spend a few days in your magnificent part of the globe! How close to Anchorage do you and Connie live? It sure would be wonderful to meet you both!

      Thank you so much. And thank YOU for watching! I cut them in half, then sauteed them in butter with garlic, some fine chopped onion, pepper and a small amount of salt!!

    In addition to the small ones you are showing, Karen, we occasionally encounter the larger puffballs here in people's lawns. They just appear suddenly overnight, and especially in the autumn. They can be as large as a soccer ball. While still fresh and solid white inside I slice them up like a loaf of bread and toast the slices in a skillet with butter. They are very good and completely safe.

      Theyre edible if you cut them open and the inside is still entirely white!

      I was on the Canadian shield - - it is a cool land formation. The closet town would be Bala. That is so cool! I have been in abandoned mines, on field trips with others to active open pit mines, etc., it is sooooo fun gathering rocks, minerals and fossils!

      @@jojow8416 Very blessed. The fourth weekend of September for the past 7 years, my family rents a cottage and we have a fabulous time. It is the only gift I ask for from my (adult) children for my birthday. We have rented cottages in Bancroft, the Kawarthas, this time we decided on the Muskokas!
