Daddy's Day
Logan gets ready to go swimming "in the blue water." Our Father's Day weekend also included a tip to Old Navy and an awesome cookout with the HPs. Next year, though, maybe we send Daddy to a spa as he is quite exhausted.
Several years ago on a trip to Colorado we visited the Denver Zoo in eager anticipation of their new exhibit, "Predator Ridge." This exciting installation was supposed to be "a panoramic view of Africa!" featuring lions, spotted hyenas, African wild dogs, crowned cranes, African porcupines, banded mongoose, vulturine guineafowl and more.
On the day of our visit, however, the only animals visible at Predator Ridge were two fat lions basking in squares of shade. "Huh," we said. "Two lazy cats waiting to be fed. We can get this at home." And thus, our manor had a name.
