Residents from West Fork Village Independent Living were in for a treat this afternoon when they visited the @NimitzVikings Planetarium. 🪐🔭
Visitors learned about the upcoming Bond election and took a trip back in time to when dinosaurs 🦕🦖 roamed the Earth! 🌏

#DidYouKnow prickly pear cactus flowers only last one day?
Some flowers last up to a week but in most cases the flower lasts for only one day.
If you see a prickly pear cactus flower, it could be your lucky day! #nature#Flowers
I spy with my little eye something that is brown, has eight legs (two of which have claws), and one stinger.
Can you see it, too? The UV light exposes it, because it fluoresces! #nature#naturecamo
What's the difference between a coyote and a flea?
One howls on the prairie and the other prowls on the hairy!
Our handy games cameras caught this curious coyote exploring the trails. #nature

Staying cool during the hot summer days can be hard. This curious crayfish is going to splash into the water after getting some sun.
If you are out enjoying the sun or water, stay safe. Don't forget sunscreen, water, and life jackets.

Leaves of three, let them be... it's poison ivy!
You can see the "leaves of three" but what about the thick "hairy" vine running up the tree? That is the poison ivy vine. All parts of poison ivy can cause that itchy rash.
When hiking, keep your eyes out for poison ivy.
