Shadow Shot Sunday #189 ~ Phoenix ZooLights Shadows






 
Last Tuesday evening we went to the Phoenix Zoo ZooLights with our daughter, SIL,David,  and his two sister's families.  David's eldest sister and her husband both work at the Zoo.  In fact, David's brother in law is the designer for ZooLights.  It was fabulous!  If you look closely, you can spy some  shadows there.

HAPPY NEW YEAR and BLESSINGS TO ALL MY BLOG BUDDIES!!
love, Cassie

Shadow Shot Sunday ~ The Phoenix Zoo ~ SSS#21

logThese are some Shadow Shots I took last March at the Phoenix Zoo. The symbol for Phoenix is the Firebird, aka the Flamingo. They were just starting to build their nests when I took these photos. That Peacock just cast such a cool shadow, I had to put him in this post too. I guess this SSS post of mine is "for the birds"!!
For more Shadow Shots please go check out Tracy's blog, Hey Harriet.

A Love Note & Taking Aunt Terry To The Phoenix Zoo...

My 83 year old Aunt Terry and her buddy, Ethel, were in Arizona from Texas for a few days. Aunt Terry (my mom's only sister and my only living aunt) is a gambler and Harrah's gives her trips to different properties they own around the U.S.A.. Well Auntie decided she hadn't seen me in many years so decided to visit Harrah's Ak-Chen Casino in Maricopa, AZ. so she could come visit me. Cool huh?

On March 21st Patrick and I took Aunt Terry and Ethel to the Phoenix Zoo. Below is the bridge across the water leading to the Phoenix Zoo. Side note: As a fund raiser almost 20 years ago the Zoo sold engraved bricks and as a surprise to me for Christmas Patrick bought 2. One for the bridge and one for me to unwrap at home! We looked for & found "our" brick before entering the Zoo. Auntie has emphysema so we rented a wheel chair to make it a little easier on her for touring the zoo. Patrick was pleased to be her "chauffeur". What a guy! Below are photos, in no particualr order, from our zoo trip. I hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed our trip. By the way, it was just a gorgeous day to do the zoo!
This is a behind the scenes view of the elephant enclosure.
G'Bye Phoenix Zoo. It was a great visit!!
