We had a wonderful anniversary celebration in Glen Rose Texas. Fred rented a cabin at a B&B. It was cozy and romantic, and we had a private behind the scenes tour at Fossil Rim Wildlife Center. I have literally wanted to go for decades. I wrote a oook a long time ago about zoo vets and did research on this place because of its intensive rhino breeding program. We rode around for 4 hours in an open bus, with a great tour guide. We fed red deer, giraffes, zebras, ostriches and emus, blackbucks and oryx. We saw Mexican wolves and maned wolves and cheetahs up close. It was so much fun. Cold--the wind chill was 42 as the front came in earlier than expected--but absolutely worth it.
This week is benchmark testing at school. I didn't know until I checked my email Friday afternoon! I only worked 2 days last week, so I still won't be in the swing of things this week, just in the habit of going to work!
