Butt Crack

Who doesn't love the ZOO! Our state's zoo in Utah is called Hogle Zoo. In April, during Spring Break, I went to the zoo with my oldest daughter and her two children. The weather was perfect! A light jacket kept the morning chill away. The animals were out enjoying the cool Spring weather. When we got to the rhino's, I took this shot. I didn't think much of it until I got home and put it on the computer. 

"Interesting!" Two rhino butt shots. "But wait a minute.... what's that above them?" A great BIG BUTT CRACK shot! Even though it's a rock, it could have passed for another rhino butt... just much bigger! The shape, color, and texture is oddly similar to the rhino. Broad, wrinkly, bubbly, dimply. What was Hogle Zoo thinking!

You can find humor in the most unlikely places!

Writing prompt #3: Open you picture folders, close your eyes and pick a random photo to share and write about.

What's this stuff?

What do you do at the Zoo besides look at the animals? Eat Cotton Candy! The youngest daughter's family and I made a day of it. It was a beautiful Autumn day. The weather was perfect and the changing leaves made for a spectacular backdrop of picture taking. 

After taking a ride on the carousel  we sat down for a rest. Mom decided to get Missy Moo and Buster Boo some Cotton Candy. They had never seen or eaten it before.

 "What's this stuff?"

"It's Cotton Candy."

"What do you do with it?"

"Mommy will show you!"

Take some in your hand like this.

Put it in your mouth.

You first, brother!

One, Two, Three..... Go!

Hummm..... think we'll try it again.

Not so bad, after all!

Cotton Candy gone wrong...

Oh no! it's stuck to my fingers.

Yikes!

Mommy... clean, wash.

Precious!
















Who wouldn't SMILE watching the grand kids eat Cotton Candy for the first time!
