This morning, C and I set off to check out the Irvine Nature Center. It is a neat little place. Indoor exhibits and lots of trails outside and the best part, it's free! It does take about 45 min. to get there. But, that's how far we used to drive to the zoo when we lived in KS. I think this will be one of our frequent hang-outs...especially when the summer heat gets a little less intense. We would've stayed and explored longer, but I think we were both ready to cool off! (Well, that and my whole 'not a nature girl' thing had about reached it's limit. Next time we'll bring the hubby and those two can really go exploring!)
Ready for our adventure!
Lots of interactive, educational exhibits...
He wasn't too keen on 'The Woods at Night' room.
He loved the 'kid's corner.' Especially when he found the drawer full of snake skins. This is a big deal people...especially when your child's favorite tv show is on the national geographic channel and he frequently refers to you as "Hey, snake wrangler!"
There were tons of butterflies!!!
Showing off his treasures.
All hot and sweaty...ready to hit the gift shop and head home.
