Off to the Zoo!

Today I'm off to the zoo! I was supposed to go when my daughter was still living here, since she was leaving like the next day. We went down to Cameron Park Zoo and discovered it was closed to a special group. :(

I have lived her for  12 years??? And never been to the zoo except to take my daughter to drop her off at a Girl Scout trip!

So one of my friends I met who was a library patron and I talked about going to the zoo and so today it is! It's cool enough that it will be comfortable and hopefully the animals will be semi-alert. :)

It's supposed to get to 79 today, so should be perfect weather, though a little chilly this morning.

I believe they have a jaguar, but no wolf. *sigh*

Today, I'm here!

My mother and dad took us to tons of zoos all over the country. I love them, but she said she'd had her fill of zoos and never wanted to visit another.

When I visit my son and daughter-in-law next month, we're going to the zoo in Omaha, Nebraska. And when I see my daughter and son-in-law next year, we're going to the one in Houston. Can't wait!

Do you like zoos?

I'm in a rush to leave and needed to announce where I'll be today with guest blogs, but I just checked the news about Sandy and send my best wishes to all those affected by the storm.

I saw comments where people were saying it was only a Cat 1 hurricane, no big deal, but with 85 mph winds, no matter what it's called--straight line winds here, or circulating tornadoes, it's a big deal! Like someone said, it was only 35 mph in the beginning and with the rain soaked ground, trees and utility poles were easily uprooted.

A house full of water is a big deal. No electricity for days, or even hours, is a big deal. A tree down depending on where it lands can be a big deal.

So my heart goes out to everyone who's suffered from the storm whether it's relatively minor damage or major. It's a nightmare.

Be back in a little while to check in!
