Beautiful Pictures!

Franklin Conservatory in Columbus, Ohio where my husband is from has a great butterfly room if you ever get there.

We also went to the one at our local botanical garden here this past summer and are looking forward to hopefully catching it again this time! I'll probably do a similar 13 at that point! ;)

Thanks for sharing, they are lovely!

I thought of you this weekend. I finally made it to First Mondays in Canton! It was awesome. Totally out of this world. We walked for 8 hours and still didn't see half of it. I think when we go back, we'll get a room for the night so we can break it up into two days. IT WAS SO WORTH THE DRIVE!!!
:)

P.S. Love the pictures...I need to go there, next!

Is it OK to have a favorite? If it is, then I like #11 best. Thanks for sharing, and thanks for visiting my TT.

Rebecca said...

Wow, those are all great! It must've been a lot of fun to be in there with all those butterflies! :-)

What wonderful photos you were able to capture how very nice you shared them with us.
I had fun visiting your TT.
Mine is at The Cafe.

I am really in the mood for a major getaway. I would love to be one of those butterflies today and take off. But I am here and just enjoyed some major beauties in the world of butterflies. Thanks so much.
