Sunday at the Zoo

We've lived around here for years, but never went near the Zoo.

I'm not sure why, but finally we went to see it.

Nothing made me sad at this zoo like zoos sometimes do.

The weather was bright and beautiful with none of that central valley heat.

Just lovely.

Sacramento has done a pretty good job with their zoo

Watch out for the big Froggy String!

Ladies and Gentlemen, the rare and beautiful RED PANDA.
We had a lovely time--wish you were here :)

Priorities

by Mother Theresa

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind,
People may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends
and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building,someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
