Colombian Park Zoo

Hyrum has been asking to go to the zoo almost every day for the past two weeks. Bad weather foiled our plans of going last week so when I woke up this morning to sunshine I figured it was now or never. It was a bit nippy but otherwise just lovely. There was hardly anyone there and the animals were a little lethargic, so it was quite different from last years visit, but Hyrum seemed satisfied with the outing so I'll consider it a success.



After we saw everything there was to see at the zoo (twice), we stopped at one of the playgrounds for a while. I learned a valuable lesson: wet sand is nobody's friend. Hyrum did okay and I was able to dust him off leaving him no dirtier than an average trip to the park, but after about 3 seconds Abraham was covered with goopy sand in his mouth, down his socks and everywhere in between. Teach me to think he can stand still while I take the time to blink!
