Butterflies

On 7/5, I had the privilege to see my dear friend, Angela, who was visiting family in Wyoming.  Angela and I worked together at Rockwell Collins in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and have been friends since 2001.  It is always a treat to see her when she comes out to visit her family – so thankful she was willing to drive down to visit me!

We went to the Butterfly Pavilion; originally I had wanted to go for my birthday, but when I asked Adam if I could go with Adam, he said, “by all means”, MWAA HAA HAA.  :)

Here is a sampling of the pictures I took – it was an incredibly cool experience.  We had no idea how active the butterflies would be while we were there, but there were butterflies EVERYWHERE.  They release new butterflies at 12:30 and 3:30 pm; they receive two shipments a week.  Definitely worth a trip if you’re in the area!
