Jo's Boys' Butterflies :)

    All butterfly photos were taken my the front yard's butterfly garden.

    Florida is a fabulous state for butterflies! In my butterfly garden you will daily see Cloudless Sulphur, Zebra Longwing (the official Florida State Butterfly), White Peacock, Gulf Fritillary, Monarch, Queen, Eastern Black Swallowtail, Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, and Giant Swallowtail butterflies... and some spring/summer/fall days you may see all of them!

    Enjoy the photos, but please remember that all are Copyright 2006 by the blog owner. Use is prohibited except for express permission.

Hi Guys!

Thank you all so very much for your very, very sweet comments.

I actually had NO CLUE that people were still checking in here.  I certainly do not deserve to have anyone come by, since I never seem to update!  But I will try to be better about that.

But not right now!  For some reason, I am having a wicked time with my computer tonight.  This probably has something to do with the fact that Oldest has been playing all manner of online adventure games lately and everything I am typing seems to get messed up.  So I have to shut down the computer and start over.

Read any good books lately?  I have listened to two on CD (while in the car going from place to place) that were WONDERFUL. 

~  A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith

What a FABULOUS story.  I absolutely adore this genre- sort of like a lower key Angela's Ashes (which was also phenomenal).   I was truly depressed when the story ended and then I was even MORE depressed to hear that there was no sequel!!!!   

~ The Glass Castle by Jeanette something or other (I am so lazy tonight!).  Walls, maybe?  Anyway, it was a wonderful story but do be careful - there's a drunk father in the story and he uses some seriously foul language from time to time. 

There seems to be some debate as to how much of TGC is strictly autobiographic and how much might have been fictionalized but I don't care - it was a great story.
