We'Re NuTS

As we contemplated what to do with our free Saturday, we checked the weather and saw there was only a 25% chance of rain until noon in today. So we ate a leisurely breakfast and hit the road around 9:30am, grabbed a coffee (bk), chai (mk) & choc milk (ak), filled the tank with gas and drove east, with NW Trek in our sights. We should have outfitted the car with a snorkel first though. It poured, as seen in the photo below as we first arrived.

So we ran to the Cheney Center and crawled through logs, learned about salamanders & snakes, and did a caterpillar craft.
Gopher snake (same as a Bull snake).
Then we ran to the tram for the big animal tour.
I'd like to say this was a bugle. . .but it was just a rainy-day yawn.

Thar's deer owt thar!

Pappy & The Ladies.

During dinner tonight, back in our warm, toasty house, we asked Abee what her favorite animal was. The first thing she said was the baby bison.

Golden.

Three minutes after this photo was taken, she was asleep in the car. The hot topic on the way home was a name for Baby K #2. Still undecided. . .but the choices are narrowing. 11 weeks to decide.
