Fairy Rings
They’ve been spotted — at least evidence of them. Them? Fairies, elves, pixies. They’re real and they’ve been dancing and playing around our neighborhood. Of course, I haven’t seen them in person as I don’t want to disturb them and risk getting caught up in their magic.
Here is the proof:

These fairy rings, which scientist say occur naturally (but I know better), usually pop up in fields, lawns, or forests this time of wet year. They live off decaying organic matter in the soil.
Disclaimer: Many poisonous mushrooms can look very similar to edible ones. Don’t take a chance and eat one (Of course, consuming the “right ones” will increase your chance of seeing fairies, elves, pixies . . . and god knows what else).
Cool weather is finally going to arrive this week. Take the time to get out and explore. Perhaps you’ll discover your own fairy ring — just don’t get caught up in their magic. Or, if you do, report back and share your story.
Carpe diem Life,
