Colorado

Well we made it to Colorado. Our first day here was snowmobiling. We took a nice tour with the kids. Then the kids got to drive some "kid-size" snowmobiles. We all had a blast. Jenn got stuck in her snowmobile while driving in the play area. Vaughn was not to be out done. He got stuck too the first chance he got. DJ seems to be the speed demon of the group, and not a bad driver either.

Vaughn Feeding the Birds

Vaughn and I got to do a sleepover at the San Antonio zoo this weekend with his Cub Scout pack. We got to see the zoo at night when the zoo was closed. Several of the nocturnal animals were out. We got to dissect an owl "pellet," which is basically a hairball that they cough up. It had several bones from small animals that we identified.

Then we saw the zoo on Sunday. Lots of animals were active. We saw some hyenas fighting each other, and got to fee the Lorikeets. Here is some footage from the feeding. We had a blast doing it.

Here is Vaughn seeing the zoo at night:
