Natur

Alright, this is totally random, but we LOVED this shop.  There is a little shop at 94 West 7720 South, Salt Lake City, Utah 84047 called Natur (website and his facebook page)  A guy collects (now has things sent) and positions, frames, and sales dead animals (mostly bugs).  When we arrived my kids peered through the window to watch him work in his shop. He waved motioning them in. When we stepped into the shop he came out and basically told us all about the different animals.  He was great with the kids asking and/or answering questions for about 30 minutes.  He even pulled out an octopus that he had in preservatives that wasn't in it's display case so he could show the different parts of the octopus to the children.  His artwork is so interesting!  It was more then a 'shop' it was a like a little museum with our own personal tour guide.  LOVED IT!  #2 Boy is already asking to go back.
He gave each of our children a key ring with a beetle in it (they love them!)
Dad and I also bought some mother's day gifts for our mothers.  He had them in boxes (the framed ones were a bit much) so Dad set to work on framing them.  We hope our mothers enjoy them!
