Como Zoo

We went to the Como Zoo this past Saturday and had a very nice day overall. Josh’s younger sister Jenny joined us in our adventure, and we had a good time. There aren’t a huge variety of animals, but there is a beautiful conservatory, and they had butterflies as well, which was one of my favorite things, aside from the large kitties. Unfortunately, a lot of the animals were indoors napping, and due to very poor lighting and dirty windows, we couldn’t get good pictures of some of them. However, here are some highlights from the day.

Catch Up!

Eek, I’ve been neglecting my blog due to a little bit of a funk I’ve been in. I do have pictures of from the races at Canterbury, though! It was fun and I got a little bit of sun, which was quite nice. We do, however, wish they had had more than just one race each of the ostriches and the camels.

We saw this little guy on the side of a street we drove by – isn’t he sweet? Must have been camera shy, though, because he refused to look over at the camera. :p

 

It was a bit chilly this weekend – we went north to camp out at a B-Day party for a friend of Josh’s family – people he’s known for years. We did a little fishing, and sadly the only thing I caught is pictured below. I didn’t even realize it was on my line when I reeled it in. I had felt a nibble, and thought I lost it, but no… it was just really tiny.

Josh’s first catch of the day was about the same.

From there he caught two more about this size, but alas, no bass for us.

Some very nice views, though.
