The Zoo - Part 1

It has been awhile since I've been to a zoo, but finally had the chance to check out the one in my area. It was extremely hot that day, so the animals mostly only had energy to sleep. The humans were the only dummies walking around. Here are a few pics for you.

Macaw

Porcupines

Prehensile-tailed Porcupine

Clouded Leopard

...and you thought they were extinct!

Stay tuned for Part 2!

Hibiscus Flowes

Just a few pics of some hibiscus flowers I took recently. They make me happy. :-) Please click the pictures for a larger image.



Pelican Food

We were down on the Pier this past weekend and spotted this pelican standing hopefully by this sign:

Then we spotted his buddies around the corner to the left of this sign...



...and then when we were leaving, we spotted this gentleman, who had the thankless task of cleaning up after the pelicans after the Pelican Food shop closed. Ick!

Mother's Day Dessert

Our dessert options on Mother's Day...

...and our selection: Godiva Chocolate Cake!

Delish!

Old Cars

Spotted these cars this weekend in and around the museum parking lot. Couldn't resist snapping a few pictures. I know nothing about these, but I'm sure there are old car enthusiasts out there somewhere.

Patron Saint of Tenacity

This describes my mom's dog so well! Trixie is nothing if not tenacious when she wants something. She will give us all sorts of attitude and lip. We can't help but laugh, which she hates, because, of course, she's serious!

I found this while out walking around town today. This will be a part of my mom's Mother's Day gifts in May. I think she'll get a kick out of it!
