Meerkat at the Zoo - PAD #1009

Today Allison and I took Eva over to the Capron Park Zoo. I also got to use a real camera again so I was able to get some decent photos at the zoo. I love photographing the animals at the zoo. I also met a zoo volunteer who does many of the photos for the zoo and promotional materials.

I wonder if he would like any of these photos that I took.

I am very happy to be back home and to have access to my cameras again. I had a great time using my macro lens around the zoo. My favorite animals to photograph are the lions. The zoo is working on getting a White Lion cub. I can’t wait to see it and photograph it.

Next month Allison and I are headed to Florida for a vacation and we will be down near Miami, I saw a TV show today where the people on the show were talking about many locations in Florida and the Miami area specifically where families can go to see animals. I didn’t know that there was a zoo there and I hope that we can go. I want to go to Butterfly world again as it was an amazing place to go and take photos. Some of my favorite photos of 2007 were from there. This time I am going to get even more of them.

No time to wash up…

I was thinking about how I spent the past 4 days going from airport to airport. I also spent hours in a car and woke up early in the morning and went to bed late at night. I showered each day but being up for so long in the same clothes I tend to feel grungy, especially being on those planes.

So, instead of being grungy all day long I could make use of Salon Grafix dry shampoo during those very very long days to quickly revitalize my hair. This stuff certainly wouldn’t replace my regular shampoo but in an emergency situation I could certainly use some of the dry shampoo.

I don’t color my hair, I used to in college. Hey, it was a time to explore and experiment. But if I still did some coloring of my hair I would be able to make use of the color match versions of this dry shampoo. There are versions for brunette, blond, black and silver shades.

I like the idea of a dry product to use in my hair so that I can keep it feeling clean on those extremely long travel days. Travel takes so much out of you and getting a little lift during the day even if it is just cleaning your hair certainly can make one perk up a bit and bounce back from all the harshness the road life throws your way.
