One of the highlights of this year has been the UV Night Foray I planned for the WVMS Funga Study group. Our group gathered at dusk at the trailhead to hike down a trail and wait for dark. It is only after dark that our adventure began and we lit up the forest in Technicolor wonder.

As I prepare to do online school again this year, I asked by 12 year old if he would help me create a mycology card game. I wanted it to be fun and educational. Our family plays a lot of card games, board games and video games, so I knew we could create one.

We spent the evening jotting down ideas, creating the rules and refining the cards so the game is challenging, competitive and fun! Since we created the game, my son has asked to play it again and again.
