Gracie's fieldtrip to the St. Marks Wildlife Refuge

Last week I was able to chaperone Gracie's fieldtrip. It seems like tradition that every year the first graders get to visit the refuge when the butterflies are migrating south. The kids were split into two groups, while one group walked along a path and learned about the butterflies habits and migrations another group played a game and learned what obstacles the butterflies experience when migrating. After that it was time for lunch, so we drove down to Picnic Pond and enjoyed the nice fall weather.
