This is the local “big yellow butterfly”. It is the Eastern Swallowtail and I think this one is a male. It is the Virginia State Butterfly. Who knew we had a state butterfly?  Live and learn. I got this picture at about noon today, walking home from volunteering. Check out: Butterflies and Moths of North America.

Today I made an appointment for the cat scan. It is late Monday afternoon. I want to get the cat scan ASAP so I can get the  cystoscopy over before I figure out a way to duck the procedure.

The 2005 links are all fixed up: August 22, 2005 – I didn’t do a August 21, 2005 page.
