Lst week, I took the girls into the City to see the butterflies at the Conservatory of Flowers. Wow, that place is amazing and I give Robin Williams and his wife due credit in raising the funds to restore the Conservatory. It was destroyed after the '89 Earthquake and sat...sadly...for several years before enough money was raised to have it rebuilt. What a truly special place! Anyway, they have an exhibit right now, the Butterfly zone, in which they are hatching several hundred butterflies. The girls has a ball following the butterflies from one plant to another, in the hopes of having the butterflies land on them. Many of the native plants in the butterfly zone are ones which we have planted in the yard and we are hopeful that we will get some butterflies next Spring.

Great photos, especially of the monarch butterflies. But the most beautiful and unique flowers at the Conservatory that day were named Worthley!
