Wild Mushrooms of Lake Hartwell

I've never seen so many mushrooms in my life

and mixed with high humidity these beauties 
just exploded, appearing everywhere.
The squirrels seemed to enjoy munching the
colorful delicacies, but we did not touch them.

on the preheated grill where it got its first grill marks.

After cooking for about 3 minutes we turned it over
(using a flat cookie sheet) added sauce, meatballs, onions,
peppers, olives, and mozzarella; closed the lid and cooked
it on the lowest heat for about 7 minutes and voila.......
