Spring morel mushroom hunting

Every spring, usually when the lilac bushes begin to bloom, morel mushrooms start to pop out of the ground. For as long as I can remember, my family and I have always gone out and picked our share of the tasty suckers. I look forward to it every year. We don't batter them like other people in our community do, we usually just fry them in butter. They are delicious, and I recommend everyone try them at least once. Chances are, they grow around you, you just have to get out at the right time.
