Danita I sure hope you feel much better real soon!

Meredith, can I borrow your hubby for a while? I ma IMPRESSED with that cat cage! My goodness what a handy man to have around. Talented people in your family for sure. I see one of the daughters painting some pretty things on it.

I have LOTS of butterfly photos but no time to go through them -- I have barely had time lately to even load them from my camera to the computer BUT just for you Melanie, I have one that I will post now. Red Spotted Purple. Guys, I honestly can NOT tell you how HUMONGOUS this butterfly was!!!!!!!! The biggest butterfly I have ever seen in person. Blinking Blinking My dh & I call it "the bird" -- it's that big! I am a small person but it was just shy of being as large as my spread hand - oh! tape measure is sitting right here on my desk -- thumb to baby finger spread is 7" -- that butterfly was 6" without a doubt. It happened today. Here it is:
