Large mushroom in our yard

This large mushroom was growing in our yard after the rains we got from Hurricane Ike. I know the pictures aren't the best, but this mushroom was in our front yard and I was trying to snap the pictures as Brownie and I were on our way for a walk. I didn't really want to be hunched over in our yard very long as Brownie was really ready to get to walking and I didn't want anyone to see me and wonder what suspicious thing I was doing crouched down by my neighbor's driveway (they were nearer to theirs than ours). It's one thing to take leisurely pictures of mushrooms in my backyard, quite another in the front. Can't say this one is beautiful, but kind of interesting.
