Trip to the Zoo
We went to the zoo yesterday with my dad and his girlfriend, Benita. We had a great time! It wasn't crowded at all and the weather was nice.






My New Favorite Picture










Benita and Jonathan






Henry and Dad




We had a special treat while we were in the reptile area. The zoo employee in the photo is a friend from college. I ran into him, and he gave us a behind the scenes tour of the tortoise area. There are over 600 tortoises in this building! I had no idea that our zoo had the largest collection of tortoises in North America. He said next time we're there we can tour the other reptile areas which would be the snakes. Kristie - want to take a field trip??



Henry is a bit cautious at first.




They started to warm up to the tortoises.









Here's Phil trying to convince the boys that the tortoises won't bite them.





Up next for our family - a week at the beach. If we have internet connection, I'll try to post a picture a day.....

    That would be great! As long as it's not the insects - I can't stand the creepy crawlies.
