Summer is a time for reruns. Accordingly I share last year’s July 4th post. This was a fun montage to create. I didn’t realize how many animals could be included in this red, white and blue themed photo montage. Wishing you a safe, happy holiday and keep those pets inside as most are afraid of the noisy fireworks.

Yesterday was World Bear Day. There are eight species of bear: the American black bear, Asiatic black bear, the brown bear, the giant panda, the polar bear, the sloth bear, the spectacled bear, and the sun bear. I honor these grand mammals with today’s photo montage. Sending the photos out to you with lots of bear hugs.

I took a short, delightful trip to DC over the holidays to visit friends. Even though there are so many wonderful cultural places to visit in that city (and we did) we always find time to go to the National Zoo even for just a few hours. Enjoy!

We took a mid-week trip to DC and due to a teeny weeny snowfall the city was shut down for an entire day. So we visited the following day and even though there was very little snowfall the visit was well worth our time. Who doesn’t love a giant panda in the snow?

Our all Tennessee Zoocation 2014 was wildly successful. The 70 acre Memphis Zoo was our first stop (after Graceland). The Zoo’s animal inhabitants reside in one-of-a-kind exhibitry, such as Cat Country, Primate Canyon, Animals of the Night, Northwest Passage, Teton Trek and China – home to giant pandas YaYa and Le Le. (And yes, we have now seen all of the giant pandas residing in the US). A special shout out to Sr. Veterinarian, Felicia Knightly, who was so very generous with her time. We loved our visit.

We are now on our All Tennessee Zoocation. Not much time to edit photos -but stay tuned for photos in the coming Sundays. Here are a few fun memories from our time in Memphis. My zoocation buddy Mary Schwalm reminded me that we have now been to all of the zoos in the United States with Giant Pandas. She is looking for a new zoocation goal and is thinking about hippos.
