Detroit Zoo on this beautiful day

We visited the zoo today.  These are the kangaroos in the Australian outback area of the park, where the critters are moving about freely. Most of the animals we saw today were lounging in the sun, enjoying the sunshine. We had a relaxing time watching all the moms and their toddlers running loose having fun.  The kids are back in school so only little people were around.  I am back to working one day per week and it gives me more time for these adventures.  Shannon's wheelchair needs new wheels for it to be safe. We are going through that lengthy process to get this done.

Also as another bit of info to share, especially for us folks with aging parents.  Make sure the original Will is available to you when it is needed for final arrangements.  In order to file for taxes of the deceased, a document called "letter of authority" is needed to complete the filing.  The original Will is necessary to get this letter.

We are considering adding another family member, a small breed puppy.  We want a dog that will grow with the grand kids.  We are only fact finding at this point.  Went to a couple of animal shelters, heartbreaking to see them all without families. A developing story.....

all for now
