Mom: This note says your preschool class is going to the nature center! Alice: Is that the place with the dinosaurs? Mom: No, that is the museum. Alice: Is that the place with the giant space aliens? Mom: No, that's the mini golf course. Alice: Is it the place with that drinking fountain full of sand and old gum? Alice: That's the place! Alice: Yuck. I hate nature.

Alas! Poor Alice confuses the Nature Center place with nature itself! Ignore the Fountain of Sand and Gum, dear Alice, and groove on Sweet Nature!

When I was four, I was taken to the Lincoln Memorial. All I can remember was a toilet in the basement – it wouldn’t stop running. I can envision large water spouts swooshing around in the bowl. Kind of scary, 74 years ago!

I used to go to a place called Nature Center located in a rainforest.

That’s not the Nature Center, that’s every city park in America.

I’m with Alice: Nature is overrated. It’s windy and full of bugs and it’s always either too hot or too cold. On top of that, sometimes it rains.
“Outside” is merely what I have to pass through to get from the building where I am to the building where I want to be.
