Nature Center

BG's Brownie troop went to a local nature center last week. Lots of new things for them to see and learn. They got to pet real animal pelts of animals that had died naturally (or hit on the road). Then they drew their own animals with 2 criteria: Where they lived and what they ate. BG drew sort of a cross between a giraffe and a bear. It lives in the woods and eats pine cones...lol.
I snapped a few pics.

Knitting Night


Last night our knitting group met at the Franklin Park Conservatory for a nice stroll and knitting. While the Butterfly exhibit is showing now, most of them were in the windows, too far from my phone camera, looking out at the wide world wondering why they were trapped inside. Instead, I got a few pics of the foliage and a 'surprise' in the desert room. Also pics of the permanent Chihully art. Enjoy!






YES! This really is a chair covered in cacti!
