Dinasaurs and Butterflies

 We visited Powell Gardens just East of Kansas City yesterday - mostly overcast which was wonderful - then the sun came out and we went home but before that saw some great sights. It was the end of the dinasaur exhibit and the weekend of the butterfly and moth exhibit. Here is some of what we saw!
 They have to look like this . . .
 Before they can look like this!
 The dinasaurs were in a great setting and they really did a nice job with the exhibits and the info!


 The girl in the red shirt was scaring the shit out of her little brother!



A dream backyard!
I felt special that this one landed on me!
 He seems to have lounged here all day - must catch a lot as he does not look skinny!
 Reminds me of Jiminy Crickett


Hope to get back in the fall! Wonderful veggie and herb gardens and the whole place was a pleasure to see! Hope it is cooling off where you are but if not . . . well, you are among friends!
