When we first pulled into the parking lot of the San Diego Zoo, I could hardly wait to step out of the door of the truck. I have been waiting to come here since before we even left Maine. After we went in and got our tickets, we headed to the zoo tour bus. We … Continue reading My AFFs (Animal Friends Forever) at the San Diego Zoo!

Sugar Beet Harvesting in Montana
