A Family Establishment

A few years ago Colton’s parents opened a small café in the center of our hometown. It’s one of the few places I know that garners patrons for both its food and its atmosphere. When Colton and I come to town we head to the shop if we want to see family. It’s only there that at any given time we can be certain we’ll see, at the least, both parents, a few sisters, some grandparents, a couple aunts and uncles, and the occasional cousin. The better half of Central Oregon is almost always in attendance as well.

Yay for small, family run businesses. And good food.

The San Diego Zoo

We finally made a Bucket List. Well, a hypothetical bucket list. One that sits in the back of our minds, asleep, until a long weekend, or an average weekend, or just a few spare minutes come around. The San Diego Zoo has been topping that list since its inauguration and a few weeks back we were finally able to check it off as completed. Hypothetically. Here are a few quick pictures from our Saturday afternoon adventure. My only must-sees were the giraffes and the tigers. And the lions. And the polar bears. But I think we did a pretty good job at seeing, well, everything.

Maturity really just seems to seep from our skin. Like in this photo, for which I made that sweet girl to my left wait to have her picture taken!!!

And a few last shots from our gondola ride in the sky.

Here’s to hoping your Labor Day is light on the labor. Michelle
