Buccaneer Bruce's post earlier reminded me of the many zoos we visit and I've been scanning in a lot of old photos trying to get my website back going again. So I thought I'd post some.  These are from 2002 at The St. Louis Zoo, Forest Park, St. Louis, MO! This is one of the best zoos in the country and admission is still free which makes it a no-brainer if you're going to St. Louis.  Some attractions charge a fee and parking is $9 which ain't bad for the zoo you're geting. We've been talking about going again soon.

  Barb just called while I was writing this and we found out our first grandkid is a... BOY!  Whooo Hooo, Sorry SG! Anyway here are the scans, ignore any dust spots and have fun.

Gateway Arch
Aw, C'mon Honey! Don't be that way.
Peek-A-Boo
USS Hippo
Leopard  watching me...
Leopard  watching me too closely... I'm ready for fight or flight... leaning heavy toward flight!
Cool Dude!  Sorry, SG, I know you're a surfer dude and live on the beach but his guy is cooler!
Wave Bye Bye!  Double barreled shot for Cherish.

  After looking at these I remember the leopard well, he actually moved around so he could still make eye contact until we moved on... it was kinda scary. If he attacked, I was counting on Barb throwing herself between us.  As always comments and criticisms are welcome here, as long as they don't stay too long.
