On the way home, I found a large flush of mushrooms. I'm still working on identifying them but at this point, I'm fairly certain they're Agaricus Campestris. If not, they're almost certainly another of the edible Agaricus. They have caps about 4-5" wide, light white or greyish gills, and dark brown spores. Scent is very mushroomy. Taste is also mushroomy/quite good if you like mushrooms. (Due to spore color, there's no possible confusion with anything deadly so I felt a small taste was acceptable) No staining or brusing reactions. The cap I picked was older and cracked. I'll get a younger specimen tomorrow.
