What a Difference a Couple Thousand Miles Make!

Yes, we are now back in sunny Florida! The weather is now in the low 70s--how can there be that much difference in weather only a few short thousand miles in between?!
Anyway, Craig and Cassie came back from Louisiana after enjoying a wonderful week with her family there. We now could enjoy them here. The first thing we did was go to the zoo!

We found a little feather friend who Amy taught to get up on her arm. I was impressed with all of those who tried it! (Not me!)

Garrett and Isaac love to have Craig and Cassie come. They are getting great training for some day when they will have their own. (No announcement yet!)
The greatest thing about the Jacksonville Zoo is obviously, first, the animals, but also, how interactive and educational it is! Monkey see--monkey do!

Coloring animals.





Even the restrooms have a wall-full of animal "poo" so that you can identify it in the future!

We love to eat lunch in the Jaguar restaurant. If you are patient, they come strolling right past the window!




Garrett and Isaac's favorite animals of all were the alligators!



So long for now, Zoo, we'll be back again soon!
