The day before, though, hubby and I went to the Museum of Life and Science. It's so much fun! They have mist that forms a tornado, a water-filled ball that shows how the earth's atmosphere forms intricate patterns when it spins, a bunch of blocks you can use to build an arched bridge... I didn't want to leave!
Best of all, they had critters. There was a butterfly house with over 5000 butterflies, but I only got one to hold still long enough.

And, as a true knitter, I immediately zeroed in on the sheep. I was this close to asking the museum people what they do with the fleeces!

And here's a closeup of the yarny critters. Because us knitters can't get enough of looking at yarn-producing animals, right?

That is a beautiful butterfly picture! My daughter had a fieldtrip to a butterfly house a few months ago and I wasn't able to get close enough to them to take anything that nice.
It sounds like you had a great time.
Where in NC were you? Near Asheville? I can't remember where the museum you speak of is but I swear it was western NC. I'm probably wrong.
That museum sounds amazing - mist that forms a tornado? How freaking cool is that!
