Fossil Rim

Had a PTO day at work I needed to use so I thought I would take a trip down to Fossil Rim. It’s a 1700 acre wildlife center that you drive thru and can feed the animals from you car.
They’ve got all kinds of deer, rams, ostrich, zebra, giraffes and many other animals roaming around freely. It took us 4 or 5 hours to go thru the entire thing including about an hour break about half way thru were we ate at the cantina and walked thru the petting zoo. It was a fun day and I would like to do it again sometime. Got some pretty good pictures out of the trip and looked like my niece and nephew and sister had a great time feeding the animals.
When we finished up at the wildlife center we called an audible and stopped at the Glen Rose State Park and walked around the dried up muddy banks that hold the dinosaur foot prints. It’s pretty interesting to see foot prints that are millions of years old that you are actually allowed to touch. Usually this type of stuff is locked up behind glass, but here you can actually stick your foot in the dinosaur prints and see how your own feet compare to a big T-Rex.

And of course if you would like to see more pictures from this set, please check out my Flickr page.

Gardening Day

Went over to my parents house with Jackson and Madison to shoot them doing some gardening. Some day we’ll have some decent skies on the weekend, but lately it’s been either real overcast or raining. But for what it’s worth, this is what I got.

Then Jackson found the mud and decided to see how big of a mess he could make in it.

And as usual, if you would like to see more pictures from this afternoon, please visit my Flickr site here.

A walk at River Legacy and hair cutten day.

Got bored yesterday and went for a walk down at the park. They had opened up a few new trails since the last time I was there though I didn’t get to walk the whole park. Only did about 3.5 miles. Unfortunately the only wildlife I saw was a fish in the Trinity River. But the water was so murky that the you couldn’t see it when I tried to take a picture. I was hoping to see a bobcat as they have been spotted in the area some. Maybe next time.
Also went over to my sisters house to visit and play with the kids. After watching Horton Hears A Who, we went to Bueno and then all got our hair cut and played some Rockband. Madison who’s 6 is already better than me at playing the drums. That girls got some musical talent. Can’t wait to see what she does with it as she get’s older.
