How long did it take to paint those columns? A work of love. Wonder if they’d take volunteers next time?

A change from nature in Wisconsin – a road trip to Indiana. We took a weekend trip to Indianapolis, and on a detour, saw this detailed beauty of a house.
Photographed in Vandersberg, Indiana, a small village on the Indiana-Illinois border.
Lavender scallops
Fungus many layers deep
Gift on walking trail.
This inspiring surprise of nature was found on a path along the Black Earth Creek, a trout stream near Madison, Wisconsin. ( A magnificent stream!) Taken just before sunset on October 21, 2007. I’ve misplaced my fungus ID book, so if anyone knows the name of this lovely guy, please share.
Addendum: Mark tells me these are turkey tail fungi. Very well-named.
Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul. ~John Muir
