Well, I went outside to see how far Mr. Caterpillar had traveled. Actually, he moves a lot faster than one would have expected. Ok, I said I wasn't brave enough to catch it, but I had a change of heart. I knew Brian would be heartbroken if he didn't get to see it. I trooped to the garage, retrieved the bug jar and corralled the caterpillar without even having to touch it. I threw in some Silver Maple tree leaves and put on the fabric cover. There. Good deed done for the day!

OK! You are way too brave for me. That bug looks HUGE!! My kids have alerted me to a ghastly dead spider and I am so chicken, I am getting the vacuum to suck him up rather than the mandatory 5 paper towels to pick him up and throw him out. Are you going to keep your new friend and feed him?? I think you should name him. Your kids would love a temporary pet.
Just don't let my family caterpillar-sit it!!!
