Miscellaneous Shots 2012 - No. 1 'WAITING FOR SPRING'

The colors are some of these butterflies were just amazing
but remind me never to go to Peru, the have some really HUGE bugs there

I was very surprised that tarantulas feel like fur

Love the butterflies, Jen, but that tarantula is going to give me nightmares!

agreed!!!

Love spiders!

Neat Jen! We had a tarantula when the boys were small, they used to sell them as "pets" I don't think they do anymore. Poor Domenic will miss out!

Here is why we are in Texas.

OMG...how cute.....will they be able to visit in NJ?

Probably, I don't know when, though. We have been busy going to swim lessons, story-time at the library and kindermusik. her mommy is in Boston today at MIT recruiting for her employer. Very thankful for her job so Andy can stay at home with Cora.

Awwww, how lovely, Jan!

Nah, too high class for her

Love the caves and animals Jen, eagle is my fav though. :)

Great shots Jen! Love Cape May zoo!

Hmmmm, looks,like a place we'd like, Jen.

Last night in Staunton, VA, we went to one of our favorite restaurants for a splurge night out, and we always pass this huge metal watering can in the medium park of gorgeous spring bulbs and pansies that is a memorial to a lady who must have been the beautification chairperson. On the other side of the flyover behind the watering can are enormous meat flower pots overflowing with colorful flowers. Here is a shot of the water can garden.

Totally cool! Nice memorial to someone who cared......

That memorial is totally cool!!!

That is cool!

We were robbed at our hotel in Saunton so I need to stay clear of the place

Weird coincidence. Staunton, VA, made Smithsonian's list of top small towns. Just read it.

LOL

love that!!

Topping tha list was Great Barrington.

Rhode Island?

MA.
