This month, we had a couple of real nice white mushrooms growing near our sidewalk.   

   Last week, I found them knocked over and was a bit perturbed.

   People know enough (usually) not to pick someone else's flowers. So why do they have no compunction about kicking over someone else's mushrooms? 

   I am hoping it was a child.

   I have always wished I knew more about mushrooms, but in my ignorance I have always think of them as an underground plant cult.

  Although many people hate to see them sprout up on their lawns, they are often beneficial. Best to leave them be, right?

  If anyone can share information on this type of mushroom, please do!
