St. Louis native, Don Dill, 88, started studying mushrooms 60-years ago. It started when he and some friends were at the Lake of the Ozarks. He went outside one morning to check their leaky boat tied in the water and discovered an amazing sight. He said he went out the porch door and encountered what looked like a “flower garden.” As far as he could see down to the water was covered with mushrooms.

Webster Theater A Landmark of History
Nestled on a narrow street in a quiet neighborhood sits a 104-year-old house. Inside that house is the longest continuously running community theatre west of the Mississippi River, treasurer of the Theatre Guild of Webster Groves Debbie Love said.
She said the organization has offered generations of Webster Groves residents the chance to attend and participate in a local performing arts venue.
Pictures of cast members from past plays line the halls inside the theatre and date back to 1952.
“We have people come in and look at the pictures and go ‘there’s my grandma or great uncle,’” Love said. “It’s really cool. People just love to do that.”
