When I bought tickets to watch this documentary film with a longtime friend at our childhood stomping grounds in Worcester (MA), I wondered if the (human) stars of my current audiobook would be there.
They were! 🐢
I drove past the house I grew up in, too, for the first time in about a decade. There are solar panels on the roof now and the front yard looked lovely. There were even a couple of young flowering trees. It made me happy to see.

Amiable The Ecotarium!! My kids used to love that place when they were little and we lived near there. 4d
monalyisha @Amiable It was my favorite place when I was a kid (though it was called The Science Center then)! I loved riding the little train around with my grandpa, saying hi to all of their animals, learning about rocks and crystals, crawling through tunnels, and staring up at the “stars” in the Planetarium. We were so lucky to have it nearby! 4d

Amiable @monalyisha Did you also go to the Higgins Armory Museum? My boys LOVED it. My oldest son had his 5th-birthday party there —the highlight was when they helped him cut his cake with a medieval sword. 😄 4d
monalyisha @Amiable YES! I took my husband there on one of our first dates, in fact! I wish we could‘ve been married there. Then, I could‘ve cut my wedding cake with a sword — like your son (& Alice Roosevelt, which I always thought was a totally bad-ass move)! Sadly, it closed (maintenance costs for the building were too high) & the collection was divvied up (mostly to the Worc. Art Museum) by the time we got married. Should‘ve picked up the pace, hubby! 😜 4d
monalyisha @Amiable I took him to the Ecotarium, too, actually, which he referred to as “the fake zoo.” He‘s lucky I didn‘t dump him. 😅 4d
Amiable @monalyisha 🙊🙉🙈🤺 (that‘s the best I can do for an offended zoo animal wielding a sword 🗡️ ) 😄 4d
monalyisha @Amiable 😂 A valiant attempt. I‘m honored that it was made. 4d
