Default Hot Hot Hot

Michelle and I spent the day with the girls at the Chaffee Zoo. It got pretty hot and humid, and this is how the animals spent their afternoon. (looked pretty good to me)

This fellow is actually hanging in front of a large fan, just chillin'

And Mr 'Roo was hoping for a cool breeze to come along...

This porcupine was seriously praying for some cooler weather

And lastly this little owl, who is adorable, and would you believe he is 18 years old..

You got some great shots Mom~! I love your porcupine and the unknown "chillin" creature hanging out! I still have to edit many of mine. To many missed the mark focus wise, need to try not to laugh quite so much~ haha. What a great problem to have to overcome! Love you and I am looking forward to our next adventure!
