Thousands of Monarch butterflies overwinter in Pacific Grove, California, at the Monarch Grove Sanctuary mainly during November through February. A couple years ago we visited in February and saw so many of them in the eucalyptus trees. I’ll have to find a photo to show you, but there are some good ones on the website linked below. We did see a few fluttering around last weekend, as well, even though it was already April. It is always a special visit.
The Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History runs the museum, the Point Pinos Lighthouse, and the Monarch Sanctuary.

There is a great aquarium to visit on line or in person in Long Beach, California as well. Check out the Aquarium of the Pacific to see all of the neat exhibits and activities there. The seahorse exhibit is awesome! I still love the jellyfish, too!

Grandma Sue welcomes you to her first blog! Austin and Grandpa Ron’s appearance in Grandma Sue’s first book (Click my “Grandpa, Do It! I Do It, Too! page) is fast becoming a reality. The BookSurge team is doing a super job and consequently we have only had a few redlines. Today I got my first look at the whole inside of the book. I am so excited because it looks so great! You’ll see it first here, when it becomes available on Amazon.com!

I’m so excited to find my way in this sharing of information.
Grandpa Ron and I had a fabulous time in Monterey, California this past weekend. The weather was great. The ocean was refreshing. The sunsets were beautiful. The Monterey Bay Aquarium has an awesome new seahorse exhibit. It is wonderful! I still can watch the jellyfish for a long time.
