Not a bad day

Sun came out (don’t worry, it’s scheduled to disappear again tomorrow), place warmed up a bit, and it almost felt like Spring. Apparently I wasn’t the only one that thought so;

The fish had better be careful, Mr. Fisherman is on the prowl –

 

Gone fishin

 

 

The volunteer lifeguard was on duty –

Even the turtles were sunning themselves –

I tell ya, all you gotta do is add a little sun, and this town pops –

 

Just add sun

The grey one will never admit it, but they’re the best of friends –

 

Pals

 

 

Ain’t they cute?

Confusion rules

At least in the flower beds at my house –

 

Bulbage

 

 

It’s mid-February, 45 and raining, the weather forecast is calling for snow, and yet these guys are popping up all over the place. Not sure what they’re gonna be, but they sure ain’t waiting for Spring.

Hope they make it.

Way back when

Early part of the last century, they knew how to make a headlight for your car –

 

One Headlight

 

 

Didn’t throw a whole lot of light, but it looked good doing it.

Went to the LeMay Museum over the weekend, good stuff. If you’re ever in Tacoma with a couple minutes to spare, well worth a visit.

Quack!

Good afternoon for a walk around the lake. I try and take photos of the ducks –

 

Quack 1

 

 

They’re hard to get a decent photo of cause they won’t stand still. Nervous little buggers –

 

Quack 2

 

 

It’s a game we play, they bob and weave, I look like an idiot trying to take their picture. I’ll keep trying, but they’ll likely have the last laugh.

You guys are way, way, WAY, too early –

 

Overachievers

 

 

We’ll have to wait and see how this turns out. Stay tuned.

Closed in the winter, so we’ll have to go back in a couple months to go inside. Cool though.

Spokes that is –

 

Spokey

 

 

Go ahead, count ’em, they’re all there.

Mounted to an all black, 68 Coupe de Ville. I won’t say it was something I’d do, but it looked the part.

Seriously?

You’re sticking your tongue out at me?

 

Giraffe

 

 

I guess you can do that when you’re 15 feet tall.

The lions didn’t act this way –

 

Mrs Lion

 

 

Mr Lion

 

 

Neither did the penguins –

Or the young flamingo –

Even the heron was behaving himself (while trying to nab leftovers from the penguins) –

 

Hungry anyone

 

 

You’re the only one that thinks it’s funny –

 

Funny boy

 

 

 

Thanks giraffe, you made us laugh too. Thanks also to Woodland Park Zoo and the weather for making it a nice day to go to the zoo.
