Lehigh Valley Zoo

Ah the Lehigh Valley Zoo, a smallish regional zoo that takes a short afternoon to meander through, but set amongst the most beautiful Pennsylvania rolling hills to make the drive completely worth it. It helped that upon leaving the zoo, the drive taking you out to the main road goes past a reserve with deer, moose, and bison and through a river even. I think Boy Howdy enjoyed the zoo but, darn him, sighting and/or collecting rocks still seemed the highlight of his trip. Sigh. Anyway, without further ado, some pictures of our excursion.

 Boy Howdy with our friends the Brintons looking at the reptilian denizen of the cage. Enthusiasm is this boy's middle name. 

 Petting goats. What little boy wouldn't love them. "Doats" is what he called them. He also loved the rocks in the doats' pen, and even tried picking up some poop pellets. Thank heavens for the hand sanitizer stations readily at hand.

And even a picture with his momsie.

And not to be forgotten is this little angel who impressed everyone with hanging out the entire time in the stroller without a fuss. Boy Howdy did well willingly getting back in the stroller, but still, the award for model child goes to Cheeks. Oh how I love that face.
