After my penny-pinching dad’s dog post yesterday, I had to do something frugal today.  My wife and I got excited that we got some free tickets to the Minnesota Zoo from our local library.  If you live in Hennepin County (a Minnesota county) and have a library card, you may get a lot of free stuff called a museum pass. We got the zoo tickets because we really wanted Rylan to see the animals, and, of course, they were free.  It was his third trip to a zoo.  His first trip to the zoo was in Palm Desert California and second was to Como Zoo.  The Como Zoo is a free zoo in Minnesota.  It will be exciting when our son will actually remember going to the zoo.

During our zoo trip, we took many pictures of Rylan.  The above picture looks like Rylan is a statue along with the tortuous.   It was too bad we did not get him to look at the statue like he was 2 seconds before the baby picture.

I had to include a picture of one of my favorite animals, the tiger.  It was too bad I did not get to see the tiger swim in the water.

Rylan’s mom really likes groundhogs.  She loves that little chirp they make.  Rylan really liked watching the groundhogs.

At the Minnesota Zoo, they have a little island that the Gibbon’s play on.  Rylan loved watching them play.

Rylan had a lot of fun watching the fish in the aquarium swim and play.  I thought he could have watched the fish swim all day.  He loved the shark.

This dad will model and teach Rylan to be an active and responsible citizen of the United States.  This eagle represents us as the United States.  It gives me the goose bumps every time I see an eagle. I am proud of this country and the responsible citizens who live in it.

    I am saddened to read from the eagle eyes. imprisonment as an eagle, even I do not want to think! because the eagle symbolizes freedom and flies in the sky! so sorry..

    The eagle has a broken wing and can never fly again. It would die in the wild. There is nothing wrong with helping this eagle.
