It is the Lunar New Year. I was born in the Year of the Monkey. ‘Monkey zodiacs are curious, creative, intelligent and even a little bit mischievous.’ That sounds good to me. If you want more info about your Lunar Zodiac sign check it out here. Happy New Year to one and all (and if you have already broken your New Year’s resolutions from a month ago – you can start all over again tomorrow).

There are few things as much fun as watching zoo animals step foot on newly fallen snow. We were at the Central Park Zoo the Monday after the big blizzard to witness this joy. Our Breakfast with the Birds class that was scheduled for Blizzard Sunday has been rescheduled for next Sunday, Feb 7th from 8:30 to 10:30. There are a few slots still available. Come join the fun. Sign up here.

The NYC blizzard kept most of us close to home. Here are a few wintry photos from my neighborhood outing yesterday. I especially missed Benny the dog – he loved the snow. Sigh. The citywide travel ban is in effect until 7am. It is eerily quiet out there except for an occasional snowplow. Our zoos are closed for a second day. Guess I’ll stay home with my own little feline zoo.

If you find yourself near Santa Rosa, CA take the time to visit the enjoyable Charles Schulz Museum and Research Center. There is something here for everyone. I especially liked to see the introduction and evolution of each Peanuts character from the 1950’s thru the 1980’s. There’s videos, cartoons, a bit of history and even a large room where you can create your own cartoons. I thought my favorite character was Lucy but after visiting this great place I am forever in love with Snoopy. FUN!

For the third year in a row we find ourselves on the West Coast at the wonderful San Francisco Zoo. This zoo holds a special place for my California family and me. A loud shout out to Dom Dorsa, Curator of Birds and Reptiles for his generosity, spirit and time. You made our visit very special. We will be back.

For the past 10 years I have been featuring Benny the dog on our annual holiday card. As most of you know, Benny crossed that rainbow bridge two months ago. As a farewell tribute to my little guy I decided to feature him one last time. After pouring through hundreds of photos of him I chose one as I like to remember him best – happy, healthy and living the good life. Enjoy some of the other cards that highlighted Benny’s good nature through the years. He was a very good boy. Carpe diem and Happy Holidays to one and all.

This is the penultimate photo montage for 2015 and I spotlight my home base, the Central Park Zoo. I have shared 86 photo montages with you this year and I thank you for coming along for the ride. Next Sunday will feature my standard ‘end of the year’ pics. Your comments (both on the ‘while at the zoo’ website and to me personally are most appreciated. Here’s hoping you stick round for whatever 2016 brings us.

I love art and I love cats. Inserting my three cats – Madison, Audrey and Roberta into famous masterpieces is just plain fun.
