We went to this place near San Jose today that had, among other things, a little frog enclosure. I was told that there were around 60 individual frogs in there, but they were hard to spot. Many were on the underside of leaves, like this fellow.
My dad loves frogs; he would love this place.
plants
There is a short trail behind our hotel. It is mainly surrounded by coffee plants, but there are plenty of beautiful tropical varieties as well. Doug spotted a couple that we recognize as popular houseplants. I don’t know what this one is, but it sure is bright. If this is what we can find here on the outskirts of San Jose, the jungle is going to be outstanding.

Merry Chr….AHHH! MY EYES!!!
There are so many things with these decorations, and the camera doesn’t even capture them all. First of all, the geese. Why are there only four (there are two off-camera)? If you’re going to include geese as part of your Christmas look, shouldn’t you at least have the requisite six? Also, the lights are actually flashing on and off in no apparent order or rhythm. That said, the pattern of the flashing becomes horrifyingly clear when you get out of your car and stand in front of this monstrosity; it’s in time to the music that’s playing.

disaster
At about 9:45 this morning, one of the sprinklers went off at work. In seconds, the climbing structure was soaked, the floor was covered in 5 inches of water, the stairs were wet, and the fire alarm went off. We were allowed back in after about 15 minutes but the damage to the floor was extensive. Luckily, there wasn’t much exhibit damage, aside from the climber, and there were no visitors in the museum at the time; thank heavens there were no kids in the climber and no one on staff was hurt. The museum remained closed until 5:00 today, but it’s still far from back to normal. The next few days should be interesting.

at long last, the image that inspired me to think about Project365 in the first place. I used to see people all the time, standing in front of the “no smoking sign,” lit cigarette in hand, and I would think “man, I wish I had a camera!” And then I started having a camera all the time, people stopped doing it. Until tonight. Finally.
