Giraffe Tongues and Jazz

This is Mawimbi our 12 year old bull.  I spent a lot of time hanging out with him today.  He makes the funniest expressions:

How can anyone refuse giving him a cracker when he looks at you like that?

This is Ajali.  She has shoes on her feet because her front hooves were giving her problems.  She gives a whole new meaning to high heels!

And Mawimbi again shows off his long tongue.  I was standing right here the other day and almost ran right into a tongue hanging down above my head!

I had a great night in down town Colorado Springs.  One highlight was getting to see this great jazz band perform at an Irish pub with my friend Emma!

The upright bass player was amazing.  It was a little weird that there were bouncers outside the pub; they take their jazz seriously!

Friends visiting the zoo and Redrocks tomorrow in 40 degree weather! Bring it on Colorado, you forget I am used to Iowa weather!
