9/19 - Three cheers for butterfly pirates!

Butterfly thought this pretty purple derby sticker might be a flower.  Last night, there was a huge dragonfly doing laps with us around the track!

Another Nature item of note from last night:  A huge flock of geese flew overhead, honking.  One of them left us a little present that we had to skate around for the rest of the night.  Every time people went by it, they’d yell out, “Poop on the track!” (We need an indoor venue.)

Butterfly reminded me that today be Talk Like a Pirate Day, so we set sail to find us a butterfly pirate on the interseas.  Ahoy, fair pirate!

How’s me wee crew today?  Cap’n Mommy misses you!

6/29 - The Bug Ladies get down to business

Butterfly would like you to meet her new friend Tarantula, who just moved into the zoo.  He says, "Come visit!"

I also took a picture of the blue sky and poofy clouds I saw at the train station.

Not sure exactly what business the Bug Ladies are in, but I'm not going to mess with them!

Happy birthday to That Silly Doug.  We sure do miss you.

1/05 - Butterfly does not like lime pickle

Look who we found at the train station!  Friends of Butterfly (FOB).

We had the cafeteria's version of Indian food today for lunch.  The sag paneer was wretched, but the dal paneer (?) was OK. We liked the GREEN cilantro chutney, but the RED lime pickle was crazy!  It was so salty and sour at the same time, and poor Butterfly almost flew away from the surprise of it all!  Yikes!
