Our Painted Lady caterpillars are now butterflies and have broken out of their chrysalis. They are anxious to be set free. I will keep them for a couple more days so the kids can see them but will need to release them soon.

Were you given a "taste for nature" early on?

If so, how has it affected your life?

I'm grateful that our parents saw the ideal afternoon as one that is spent outdoors. Some of my best childhood memories involved hiking, biking, combing for agates, canoeing, camping, looking for wildflowers and generally enjoying time outside. I hope our children feel the same way!

This morning 3rd Rock Kids visited the Robert E. Barrett Fishway in Holyoke. They got to see American Shad, Sea Lamprey and Small Mouth Bass get lifted up and over the dam on the Connecticut River. They learned the importance of fish counting for environmental purposes and how the dam produces power for the city.

A huge shout out and thank you to the 3rd Rock members that made the trip all the way out to the Franklin County Fairgrounds yesterday to show the North American Family Campers Association campers how to make Campfire Cupcake Firestarters.
