Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden

Today we took a trip the Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden for nature day, an extraordinary wooded area in (or near?) Theodore Wirth Park on the western edge of Minneapolis. Jess had been there once before on her own for a mushroom walk. It was so beautiful. Super shady and moist, lots of moss and rare flowers. Bubbe joined us, as did swarms of mosquito's. We didn't spend as long as we would've like since we forgot our repellent, but they had neat little cabin/learning center in the woods with fun things to touch and learn about (snake's skin, turtle shell, bear and beaver fur, and a buffalo rib!).
