Elliot used the word “ecosystem”correctly the other day. He’s six. I told him he has a great vocabulary.
Elliot and I were enthralled with the ferns in the wet, lush forests at Monhegan Island in Maine in July. Elliot had never seen such large ones before. We talked about the enormous fern forests during the dinosaur times. He really likes ferns.
Speaking of dinosaurs, we saw a T. rex 3-D IMAX film at the Denver Science Museum yesterday. Elliot had been to the museum in August with Camp Gan Izzy so he proudly took me to all of his favorite exhibits. The gems and mine were number one. Health exhibit was number two. Poison special exhibit was number three. Unfortunately the orca exhibit was gone; that might have been number two.
Some Monhegan Island photos are below.
