I've been gone a while. I started reading fanfiction to escape and I got sucked in an abyss.

I have no idea if someone else is hosting similar challenges. I just grabbed some of what I have hosted before.

Here's to a happy year of great reading
Jan2023: Not much has changed. Writing a fanfiction now O_o as well as reading but I bought 7 new books in December and hope to get those read soon. Crossing fingers about adding challenges (late!)

Saturday Snapshot & Quote

Saturday Snapshot
hosted by Alyce at At Home with Books

To participate in the Saturday Snapshot meme, post a photo that you (or a friend or family member) have taken then leave a direct link to your post in the Mister Linky. Photos can be old or new, and be of any subject as long as they are clean and appropriate for all eyes to see. How much detail you give in the caption is entirely up to you. Please don't post random photos that you find online.


The family went to the San Diego Zoo's Safari Park this week. You may remember it as the Wild Animal Park. We took a truck tour (extra) and were able to feed a giraffe and a couple of Rhinos. Then stopped in the Lorikeet exhibit and got one picture before the camera battery died. For just a little bit, I had four birds on me!

That looks like a great place for animals (and people) to roam :)

Ah, I love zoos! And the San Diego one is fabulous, although I haven't been there in many years.

I think that's amazing to be so close to the giraffe and rhino. Bet you guys had a great time!

Looks like you had a nice day!

The animals look so friendly. I love going to zoo... lots of great photo opps.

I'm sure the animals were as charmed by you as you must have been by them. I met a giraffe once and he seemed to have a sense of humor. Did you get that impression from your friend?

Alyce said...

Those are fabulous photos! Giraffes are so much fun to watch. I bet it was great fun to be able to feed one!

We went to the zoo a couple of months ago. Looks like you had a blast!

I got to feed a giraffe at our local zoo once, their tongues are SO long and purple. Touching a rhino is pretty awesome!

Simcha said...

We (my kids and I) love zoos and this looks like a great one. I'd love to be able to pet a giraffe!

Marie said...
