"When I was a kid I went out to Missouri, visiting my great grandparents. When I was there I saw a caterpillar museum, which seemed really crazy to me. I actually liked it a lot though, and I tried to go back a few years later, but it had turned into a butterfly museum."

The thing with this joke is it needs to have that "I'm just telling a story" feeling. It doesn't work as a response to "Hey, Terry, tell us a joke!" I mean, obviously, if I am seeing a standup comedian I understand it's going to be jokes, but there's no contrast/exaggeration if it's explicitly laid out as a joke beforehand.
I think it's a quite solid joke.
