Can you say exhausted? Five kids - three of them boys (what the heck do I know about boys??) - it was like trying to herd cats. I don't know how the Darling Munchkin's teacher, Mr. E., does it every day. He is a very patient, kind, and loving man who truly adores those kids and wants the best for them. Wow.
The museum was fun and had very nice displays. From what I understand, a lot of the animals were born in captivity or injured in some way, which would preclude their release into the wild. So, we get a nice living museum, and the animals get a safe home.
We saw foxes, coyotes, and a wolf. There were some deer, a bobcat, a skunk (no odor, thank goodness), and a 'possum. I'm going to post pics of the 'possum for tomorrow's Friday Ark - it was curled up in a tree stump, very cozy.
We got to "pet" a horseshoe crab, saw some paddlefish
(not mine - source)
and atlantic sturgeon. And that's just what I remembered off the top of my head.
OK. Time for a break... I'm going to relax and have a glass of wine.
