To the ZOO

Yesterday we decided to check out the local zoo. It is a very small pathetic little zoo but really just the right size for Summer. The last time we went to the Oklahoma City zoo, a much larger zoo, Summer was board almost immediately, so this small size was actually nice.

First we went into the goat petting zoo. Summer was able to feed the goats for about 2 seconds before they knocked the cup out of her hands. Then I had her stand in the tunnel, she was a little scared because one goat was behind her and one was looking at her from the side.


The zoo had a chimpanzee. When we first went by he was in his cage inside, a neat cage, looked more like a bedroom with a bed and blanket. He was sitting right up against the glass so we got to really study him or her. It was really neat to see it so close. Then it moved outside and Summer and Papa watched it play with a ball.



They also had one of those really big turtles, or whatever they are called. That was neat, this thing was huge and it seemed like he wanted to follow us and be petted. Summer was able to touch his head and his shell, or her, whatever it was. She enjoyed the turtle quite a bit.


Elephant statue thing, need I say more?


Summer and I the last time we were at this zoo, April 2008, over two years ago, my hasn't she grown!


Sheesh she wasn't even walking when we were there the first time, I had to sit her in front of the goat tunnel!


And look at the photo quality from 2+ years ago, good thing I am getting better at taking photos :o)
