Denver Zoo

Wow, I have been a blogging fool lately. When it rains, it pours, I guess. Today we took our kids to the Denver Zoo. The weather was much cooler than it has been with partially cloudy skies and everything. I love Kathy Sabine and I want to have her job. (For non-Coloradoans, KS is a weather superbabe on TV.) After our marathon car trip last week a trip to Denver is no big whoop for anyone in this family. Anyway, the Zoo was nice. A lot of the animals were underwater, if possible. I don't mean the seals, I mean the hippos and polar bears. If they had a pool they were in it. The gorillas were fascinating, I could honestly watch them endlessly. The part that will stay with me forever was when we were standing at the elephant habitat and heard this little girl shriek,

"Look Mommy! Look, Look, Look! Can you see it? Can you see it?" (jumping and pointing.)

The whole crowd turns to follow her direction, but we don't see "it".

In frustration she finishes with,

"Can't you see it? That girl over there has a Razr phone!"

Crowd groans and silently promises to shut off their cable service and internet the second they get home.
