LOU, NICE SHOT. I think you could sell this picture to the zoo! #10183038Lou Lazerson June 16, 2012
Sandi,I'm always pleased to get positive
feedback from you. Thanks!
FYI I'm on the Miller Park Zoo Board.
Every other Saturday the zoo brings
animals down to the Farmers Market
to show to the public. The kids love
to see the animals.
