Harvestman (Opiliones) spider on "The Blusher" mushroom

This is a small Harvestman (Opiliones) spider on the partial-veil ring of The Blusher" (Amanita novinupta aka Amanita rubescens) mushroom in my [Previous] photo. I found it on the mushroom after I picked it for my photo. These harvestmen are built differently from true spiders with just one body part and only one pair of eyes. This is actually a "butt shot" of the little spider, but it seems pretty obscure for the BBBT group. (San Marcos Pass, 6 March 2019)

Our storm last night started with a bang - thunder and lightning and hail and rain! I started to add a comment to my first photo last night, when the power finally went out and cut me off. There were apparently 1000s of lightning strikes over the Santa Barbara area - pretty exciting with the lights out! There are some photos at local news sites Edhat and Noozhawk. We ended up with just over 2-1/2 inches of rain. That's less than the 3-5 inches that was forecast for the mountains, but I'm not complaining. We had off-and-on showers today, and they might continue for another day or two.
