36 moms, dads, kids, and grandkids and Club members came together this evening to be amazed by mounted flourescent blue butterflies in matching stained glass cases and real live walking sticks, winged cockroaches, scorpions and tarantulas. The bravest of the brave (kids) and the wariest of the wary (this grandma) were both stupefied and goggle-eyed and Jim Nutting's presentation. Pictures to follow.
