The Evergreen State College. Parking Lot B. 1300 hours. 10 degrees Celsius. We walked along the edge of the parking lot in order to plan our moss walk for the 15th. We had a beautiful walk because the sun was shinning and the moss walk with the public will be a lot of fun. I collected Dendroalsia off of a Maple tree along the trail to the organc farm. I collected Kindbergia praelonga that was growing in a small mat mixed in with a huge mat of Kindbergia oregana. These growing along the cement walkway. I collected Electrified Cat's tail from the same walkway but on the other side. I also collected Aulacomnium from a rotting Cedar stump. This is the first time I was able to recognize this moss in the field. I collected a green, leafy liverwort off of a Maple on the way to the organic farm.
