Spring Break - Day One

We had a great family vacation in San Diego. The first day we went to the Zoo. It was a cooler day so many of the animals were very active. We stayed until they closed.


I just love prairie dogs. These little guys seem to be hatching a plan for escape.
Me, Max and Derek in from of the mammoths of the past.
Rhino hinnies.
Llamas going on a walk!? This was a first for everyone. The keepers said this was their first time out on a walk. It was also the first time I have ever seen a llama on a leash.

We have another Boy Scout!



Last Friday Maxwell crossed over to boy scouts. 13 other boys bridged to various other troops. Derek's troop, 234, built the monkey bridge that was used in the ceremony.

The next day was Max's first service project. Our troop went to adobe Peralta to help lay sand paths around the grounds. I had no idea that San Jose was the first settlement in the area. I learned a lot. The adobe was very cool to. They had a whale bone chair!

Max is a Monkey


I finished Max's costume. We had the costume check last week. At first they said his pants were to short but then they said it was way funny and so they don't want them changed. We also need to get him new shoes because his black costume shoes are to small.
