Zoo & Car Show




On Friday afternoon we went to Wet n' Wild @ Emerald Pointe. It was great fun but unfortunately we couldn't take any pictures of the rides. We went from about noon until 4:30 p.m. and the weather cleared up and got sunny with temps. probably in the low 80s.


I had fun playing with all the animals. I can't tell which cat this is. Weezer was a lot of fun to play with because he is so young and has lots of energy.









Weezer trying to get the toy. I stayed up later than everyone else playing with the cats who never ran out of energy.















The Iverson's house where we stayed from Friday, July 13 through Sunday morning July 22. It is shaded nicely so it is hard to tell what the weather outside is really like. It also made it easier to sleep in. The week was a blast and went by way to fast.

Here is a rare picture of the whole family. This is at the Ashboro Zoo on Saturday afternoon. The weather was great for the adventure. It was low 80s for the high and low humidity. Notice Carrie's Red Sox shirt that she got earlier in the week. It is a jersey for Jason Varitek. Boston, New York, and Toronto have all won 3 straight games.


Two rhinos from up close.









Here is the long distance view of the rhinos and elephants. The zoo is very spread out with lots of animals to look at, and too many 2 see in 2 hours time.






I liked the 3-D pictures on the walls. There were lots of different ones.









A different pictures of polar bears.






In the shadows behind the rock stands a black bear. He was pacing nervously along the whole time and it was hard to get a good picture of him.








Here is the rock Grant climbed on and and others attempted!










After the Zoo on the way home we spotted a Car Show. It was my first one to see since August in Mt. Vernon last year. There were tons of nice cars. How is this for my dad's next station wagon?!






This was of special interest as the Iverson's used to have a car very similar to this but one year different.






Another classic car with nice whitewalls.



An American muscle car, just my personalized car on Need for Speed Carbon we played during the week at home! I'll be hopefully posting more pictures of the 2 week trip north earlier this summer later this week. Today I've spent a lot of time signing stuff for Hamilton County for Hardy Elementary.

by the fact that she's playing with you, it's probably Myrrh

Yep it is Myrrh. But I can tell by looking. :)

You should really let Carrie get a cat. Just look at all the fun you are missing! hint hint
