We are having so much fun exploring all of the local " kid places"! We discovered a VERY cool program through our library - a grant ( funded by Macy's) which gives free passes to the libraries for local museums, nature reserves and parks. On Friday, we checked out the pass for the Howell Nature Reserve. While it wasn't exactly " age appropriate" for Mackenzie ( you had to really look to find some of the animals in their " habitats" ), it was a gorgeous day so she had fun just being outside.
Who needs to drive to Howell when we've got our own "wild" animal:

There were lots of animals to see: herons, beavers, bob cats and coyotes

Possibly the rarest breed we saw that day was the great half
prairie dog, half man:

Oh wait! That's just daddy being silly! What was even more fun to see was Mike trying to make his way through that tiny CHILD SIZED tunnel to reach the "prairie dog" cage. I promised I'd with hold the pictures, though.
