Austen Visits the Zoo

Last weekend it finally resembled spring here in Chicago. So we got out of the house and went to the zoo for an hour or so. You can do that when you live close to the zoo and its free! Lincoln Park Zoo is one of only two zoos in the US that are free.

At any rate, off we went. Austen's been to the zoo before but I thought this time he just might take more of an interest in the animals. We saw polar bears, camels, lions and flamingos but what Austen was really interested in was the sewer covers and the sticks that he picked up off the ground.

Maybe next time, I'll get a picture of him with an animal.
