Trip to the Maryland Zoo

Yesterday Adam and I took Zach Putnam (a kid from church) to the Maryland Zoo. Zach is an only child and doesn't have many friends, so Adam wanted to take him out and do something fun. The zoo was great!





What a life!


The skunks were smelly!

I took this picture of a raven because one of my favorite literature poems is "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe. "Quoth the raven, 'Nevermore!'"

That's one BAD hair day!

Adam's gonna make a GREAT dad someday (no, that is NOT a hint! :)). Here he is helping Zach locate the different animals through the binoculars.

It must be a guy thing...

Next, we visited the chimpanzees...

I see the resemblance, don't you? :)

In the bamboo forest

I thought this was an interesting sign for the ladies' room!

Camera-man Adam!

These fellas looked like they were having fun diving into the pool!

This one reminded me of Adam in his tux on our wedding day :)

He was kind enough to pose for us...

More animals!

We got pizza and free ice cream for lunch!

After lunch, Adam and Zach rode the train...

In this picture, Adam is jumping on the moveable bridge. Thankfully, I was still on the other side...

Getting ready to enter the cave

SPOOOOOOOOKY!

Zach found a heart-shaped leaf and gave it to me :)

Our last stop was the barnyard, where we were able to compare our heights to the different types of horses.

Adam was a Clydesdale...

Zach needed a little help!

Please notice that I was the THOROUGHBRED. :)

We had a great time together at the zoo!
