Judging by the feed back, I think Ruthie is going to do a fantastic job. She hiked down last night for a few days of rest and relaxation. Her days seem to be a little busier now learning all of the ins and outs of lodge site manager life. She is getting the hang of it quickly.
Now, I have another quiz for you. I found the fungi in the photo above and I am trying to identify it. Does this look familiar to anyone? I am sure it will be my project for the day. I would love to hear what you think it is. It is starting out nicely this morning. The high yesterday was 68º with a low of 50º. We did get some rain throughout the day yesterday, but at the end of the day, the guests were treated to a beautiful sunset.

So, despite our generally contemplative and appreciative nature, today, it would appear, we are Ruthless.

At frist glance, looked like scrambled egg! Tom you might be on to some thing. Ruthless is some kind of women; doing two peoples jobs! She needs a break..

I can't identify that fungi, but it does look strikingly similar to something that was growing on the inside of my shower curtain, awhile back.

It's not a Rock Band! It is always delightful to get back on this site after a few days away and catch up on everyone's comments. I couldn't agree more that there are almost as many different opinions about the lodge and all its aspects as there are readers and posters. It'd be terribly boring if we were all the same ! In particular, the emphasis on the fact that there are certainly many levels of expertise of the readers and guests is, to me, a very big and interesting variable. I believe that the experienced hikers are considerate towards the inexperienced ones with their advice, and that makes this a truly great and useful blog site. And perhaps equally as important, if not more so, is the unwavering and excellent advice that the lodge crew members offer to everyone. I am especially appreciative of the kind wishes regarding my knee surgery; many thanks; it went well. One of the very first things that I thought if post-op was when I was going to be able to get back up the mountain to the lodge ! I'll be able to do that more easily now. It's a great place. G'day

Norman in GA...my first thought was scrambled eggs too, but that was before breakfast so maybe I was just wishful thinking...

First time poster, long time follower. Is it jelly like? This looks like it could be Orange Jelly (not the scintific name) which is in the Tremelles Order. It grows around coniferous logs. See it from time to time hiking around the Ozarks.

I'm guessing Clavariadelphus truncatus. Common name Flat-topped Coral.
