Throwback to last weekend when I stayed in a geodome. I loved looking out at the pretty scenery and running around inside the dome

Flashback to April 10th when I made my annual visit to the zoo. I really liked seeing the giraffes, lions, elephants, and orangutans. My favorite animal this year was a baby gorilla named Sully. Sully was born in July 2025 and he was so much fun to watch.

Despite the cold and rainy weather, I had so much fun at Bark at the Park last week🏟🧢⚾️ I met lots of new doggy friends, got my picture taken with my old pal, Dinger, wolfed down a yummy pupcup, and made lots of people smile🥰
