Sadness...

I have just learned about the passing away of a friend and co-worker that I used to work with at Disney. He was a great guy and one whom I will never forget. He had this laugh that was so infectious that you couldn't help but laugh no matter what type of mood you were in. You could in the crowd and not know who was there and then you would here his laugh from above the crowd and then that a friend was close by. He touched so many lives throughout his life. I have many great and wonderful memories of this person and I will never forget him. Rest in peace Roy and thanks for the many wonderful times and memories you gave us. You will be truly missed.

I'm so bad...

Ok...so I haven't done a good job keeping up to date on this blog. I apologize for that. Anyhow, a lot has happened since I last posted, let me see if I can catch you all up.
May 21, 2008: Hunter graduated from Pre-K. It was a cute ceremony and he looked very handsome in his cap and gown. Here is a picture from that day.
I started work at the zoo this week. It has been very exhausting but very rewarding at the same time. Here is a picture from today and the tiger cubs getting their vaccinations.
As my brother-in-law would call me....I am a glorified poop scooper....LOL. All of our adult female Southern Lesser Kudu are pregnant and one of them is due anytime. Also, we are hoping that the female lion is pregnant and if so she will deliver either mid-July or end of August.
I am in the area referred to as 'the hill'. why? Because there are many hills for me to walk all day long. Here are the other animals in my area and any of the them that you don't recognize...look them up for pictures. My animals include: Abyssian Hornbill; Nubian Ibex; Mayalan Sunbear; Red Kangaroo; Sarus Crane; African Lion; Tigers (white and orange); African Crested Porcupine; Anoa; White Fronted Wallaby; Warthog; Grant's Zebra; Southern Lesser Kudu; Meerkat; Southern Gerenuk; and Chinese Muntjac.
Ok... enough for now. I need to hit the bed for tomorrow is another long day at the zoo. I'll post more pictures of the tiger cubs tomorrow.
