A Picnic with Butterflies, Ducks and a Pig!


Who would believe that within a few miles of Juniper Village at Lebanon we would be able to picnic with butterflies, ducks and a pig?!

Residents boarded the bus and traveled a few short miles to Dreamscapes Watergardens and Butterfly House, just north of Lebanon.  The weather was perfect, and we got up close to the butterflies, with some landing on our residents.  The guides told us about the types of butterflies that were in the house and about their lifecycles.  One young visitor was proud to show Betty Werner a "butterfly on a stick"! There was also a potbellied pig and a beautiful duck just a few steps away from our picnic tables in the pavilion.


The residents enjoyed the coolness of the gift shop and the many beautiful Koi Ponds there.
