I had to borrow the title of this blog post from one of my favorite Waylon Jennings tunes because I talk to animals, and some people would say that makes me crazy. Crazier yet is when the animals talk back to me… As it is always tremendous fun for me, yesterday’s visit to the zoo […]

A while ago, I came across an extremely cool website – it was an alphabetical list of animals and which zoos in the world had the species on display. My computer since crashed, launching my previous list of bookmarked sites into a cyberspace void. I’ve been trying to find this site again lately, but to
We visited our local zoo this weekend (to feed my zoo addiction, it had been awhile), and when I got home, as usual, I decided to research some of the animals we observed. As I was researching these animals on the internet, I came across some ultra-cute baby animal pics, and I thought I might
A few weeks ago, we found out that one of our favorite summer activities will not be an option this year. The Fun Spot Amusement Park in Angola, Indiana will not be opening in 2009. This park was absolutely perfect for a family with kids the ages ours will be this summer: 9, 5, 2,

Did you hear the one about the Chinese man who found himself in a dilemma? His son’s toy fell into the panda enclosure at the zoo, so he jumped in after it. The panda attacked him, and because the creatures are so coveted in China, he didn’t fend off the animal because he feared he

Once again, we have a bit of a food chain residing as pets in our home. When my cat passed away a year ago now, it left a hole in our household food chain. Although it’s not quite as balanced as it was when the cat was here, today we find ourselves with a small
In the past few days, I’ve been able to catch up a little, but I haven’t written much before today and yesterday because we have been too busy having fun! It started last Friday when we took the kids out to the Fun Spot in Angola Indiana. We had a great time, but I think I learned a
Oops, I forgot to mention a few things about the Potawatomi Zoo in South Bend, Indiana in my post the other day. Even though it was small and not very well taken care of from an aesthetic point of view, we had some of the best animal encounters there – can’t believe I forgot to
