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!
