In honor of our plans this weekend...
Here are some pictures of me in 1973 at the National Zoo in Washington DC. We plan to take Emma there this weekend. I'd be about the same age as her in these pictures. What an amazing coincidence that these pictures would be among the slides the Noni sent me.





These fellows represent the Holy Grail for our trip to the zoo. Emma and M are on a quest to find out what flamingos sound like. This question dates back well over a year from when M was reading the Noah and the Mighty Ark book to Emma. As they'd name the animals being loaded on the boat M would make the animal sounds. He never knew what to do for flamingos. Emma would always ask him, "What sound do flamingos make?" Finally, we intend to find out.
