Bulletin Boards

Part of my job is to make bulletin boards for the kids area. I can't say they are too fancy, but here are my most recent creations. The bugs in the second one are copyrighted artwork for the summer reading program, so I'm going to take the picture down soon and hope I don't get in trouble.

Plants

Skip gave me some plants he'd started as seedlings. Here are 4 of the 6.

Beefsteak tomato

Roma tomato

Morning glory

Catnip

I also have basil and parlsey. So, now is the time for bets about which plant will die first. My money is on the morning glory.

Scorpion

This is a photo of the second scorpion Todd and I have found in the house. Actually, our cat Casey found them both. I guess he's actually good for something. Ha Ha! Sorry for the gross smear of its bodily fluids. My editing is not advanced enough to take it out digitally. The floor boards are only 2-3 inches wide, so you can see it's a little guy. It still freaks me out though. You might think that since I am a Scorpio I'd be cool with it, but no, I am not. Mango also found a centipede the other day. First of all I am shocked and surprised because neither cat has ever before been at all useful as far as wildlife goes. Also, we are wild kingdom. Todd put down some glue traps, which I know are kinda evil, but hey, just because I'm a vegetarian doesn't mean I'm a nice lady. I will post more pictures of scary bugs as they become available.
