What a busy week it's been!

The Odd Couple: the mallard and gosling duo
If animals get along we'll put them together so they won't get lonely and to save our limited space

Otter play time, so curious!

Stilt---the harbor seal pups all get names, this years theme is endangered vertebrates, if we get two more it will be my turn to name one!

Swim time-can you spot the merganser?

My roommate Laura is leaving today, so last night we decided to hit the town! We took advantage of the local public transportation...hitchhiking! They actually encourage bumming rides to save gas and cut down on traffic! We waited at the "rideshare" stop for a good 20 minutes before someone was going our way. On the way back though some crazy girl in a Jeep screeched to a halt right away! "We're in luck," we thought. Boy were we wrong, it was a wild ride. I guess she didn't see our third traveler, so she took off with only two of us in and the door wide open! She said she was headed to Wold road which is right where we started from so it was perfect. But then she didn't know where Wold road was so I had to give her directions, and I've only lived here two weeks! She was a little nutty but we were definitely thankful there are crazies in the world, otherwise we would have walked the eight miles!

I've been working nine-hour days lately, so I'm pretty wiped out! Hopefully I'll be able to elaborate more later! Until then....
