CALM Park

Today will be a fun day!  We are going to CALM park, which is a wildlife refuge.  Home to all the local animals that have been injured or are too old to survive in the wild.  This includes a Grizzly Bear, Deer, Fox and all the others that we don't get a chance to see living in the city.  My kiddos love this, and last time I decided to do a study on owls since there are quite a few at the park.  One little detail I decided to do with them is not shined upon by most, but I think it is fascinating!  Owl pellets!!!!!  Have you heard of owl pellets???  The furry balls of regurgitation from the owl that is filled with the treasure of bones from their prey?  I know, a little gross, but such fun!  If anyone is interrested, I have a website where you can order them.  You can find them anywhere there are owls, but then you have to bake them to sanitize them.  If you order them from www.insectlore.com they are already sanitized and indivitually wrapped in foil.    I even ordered one for myself!!

Yesterday I lied, I didn't make Spagetti for dinner.  I ordered Chinese Food and went to eat at Dh's Automotive shop.  I am slapping my hand as I speak!  We don't see him too often.  He opened his own automotive shop 2 years ago and is very busy, so I decided it would be great for us to have dinner with him.  I am fully aware that spagetti could have been brought to his shop, but to be honest, I was being outright lazy.  So this morning before I go to the park, I will get my dough ready, and Spagetti will be tonight!

Hope everyone has a great day.  I will post pictures of CALM park mabey tomorrow!
