The Zoo

Nana and Papa are in Colorado visiting.  They've been here for almost a month.  No, they aren't staying with us (although they would be welcome to).  Rather, they brought their trailer, and are staying at the family campground on the Air Force Academy.  This might confuse Bode in the long-run, because he might think this is where Nana and Papa actually live.  They've been kind enough to entertain Bode.  One day, Nana, Papa, Bode, and Mommy went to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.  Bode had a great time.  Here are some pictures.  First, we have Bode petting the giraffes.  They have very large and slimy tongues.
To get a better feel for the size of these animals, here is Papa feeding one of the beasts.
This is an interesting shot of Bode.  He's holding a stick with a bird on it.  Ashley said Bode was "flipping the bird."  Nice.
There was a big moose
and then some animals more Bode's size.

Bode had a great time at the zoo.  Evidently some hippos got into a little scuffle--Bode kept talking about how the two hippos got in fight and one of them roared.  Not too much going on this evening.  Tomorrow we are getting A/C installed (thank Heavens), so if you want to visit, now would be the time!  Pleasant day to all.
