Butterfly Show @ Krohn Conservatory

On May 3rd we went to the annual Butterfly Show at Krohn Conservatory in Cincinnati, OH. This years theme was China, and our sister city in China was the focus. There were butterflies indigenous to both the US and China at the show. There is even a "incubation" area in a back room where the caterpillars and cocoons are hanging, eagerly awaiting the emergence of some of the most beautiful butterflies I've ever seen. Here's a link to some of my pictures.

Dogs

We now have a new dog - Charlie is a 6-year old, red, smooth coat dachshund that we rescued. He's really great! He's quickly adjusting to his new home and new best bud, Snicker. They have become pals and follow each other around. Charlie is a bit barky and when he barks so does Snicker, but we're working on that too. Here's some pictures:
