Lucky you! that is indeed a monarch butterfly, one of my favorites. They are so big. You can buy the seeds to grow the colourful gourds now here in the uk, you couldnt find them at all years ago but they are avilable now. I plan to grow some next year. We have built a fairy house in our garden this year, well my daughter has with only a little bit of help. She also made a fairy dance floor complete with decorations. Its lovely. so glad you seem to have had a good time, cant wait to see more pics!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32992882.post-46920214965984297872007-10-10T23:02:00.000+01:002007-10-10T23:02:00.000+01:00Oh yes, we were able to visit Strawberry Bank one ...Oh yes, we were able to visit Strawberry Bank one time. It was lovely. But it's a long, dull road trip away, and my husband just never wanted to go over there again. Too tedious a drive.

The starteling Jungle. I have enjoyed it so much. Now I'm after the Agatha Christy book. <BR/> You have traveled more in New England than I, a sad state of affairs from a US Citizen :)<BR/>Your photos are wonderful. The fairy houses bring to life a passage in one of the Beatrix Potter mysteries by Susan Albert, in it Miss Potter makes twig furniture and a very small tea table with moss cushions on the seats. It is for the children in the story. What a fun pass time. I may have to make one too!
