BUTTERFLIES!!!

I LOVE BUTTERFLIES!

I mean who doesn’t love butterflies, they are absolutely beautiful and put a smile on any frowning face. The Smithsonian Museum of Natural Science has one of the BEST Butterfly Atrium I have ever been at, granted I haven’t been to a LOT of butterfly atria but I definitely loved this one. A MUST SEE!

Dragonflies and More

It’s been a while. Can’t tell you how much I wish I could be one of those people who could just go and travel everywhere they want and not have to worry about work or anything else. Alas, I can not. I have to work and plan my travels and adventures along my free time. Which usually has to cram into the 3 weeks of vacations I get a year.

Speaking of vacations I am going to Washington D.C in September and will be there for 5 days, I’ll be viewing the monuments and of course our tradition of checking out the local Zoo. I will also be seeing parts of Virginia as well but if there’s any pointers or places to check out please share.

 

Anyways, went for a walk today and snapped some random nature shots.

So, anyone want to share any ideas for my next ‘next’ vacation? I’m thinking of planning a cruise, never been on one but I’d really want to go. Anyone want to share any pointers or experiences?

Flowers in the Snow

We had snow today in North Carolina, not the slushy ice NC usually gets when we have ‘Winter’ storms but real-life fluffy snow. This is a rare occurrence for us here, usually this time of year we are planting in our garden and have flowers already blooming. SO I grabbed some flowers.
