All in one frame.


Oh my!  Zebra, and elk, giraffes, and.......what?  My grandson?  If you are going to spend the bucks on entertainment you might as well take pictures.  At Grapeland (Texas) Safari you take your car into the park.  These exotic animals probably think of us as a free vending machine.  At the store at the entry to the park they'll sell you a plastic picnic cup full of feed to lure the animals to you.  Yep, you'll want to take pictures. And if you have all four windows down you'll be busy trying to capture the best one.  I happen to like this one.  It captures the animals and the excitement of my grandson sitting behind me and saved me from wrenching my back.  However, you might want to make sure you have a clean mirror if you want to try this.

How much snow did we get? Knee high to a what?


More times than not it's easier to use a photograph to explain something than using words.

Someone may ask: "How much snow did we get last night?"  If you reply 20 inches that may not compute with a lot of people.  But everyone knows about picnic tables and can relate to how tall they are.

"It snowed so much it covered the picnic table benches and almost came to the top of the picnic table."

But send them a picture and it is self explanatory.
