I took a trip to the St. Louis zoo today and am currently stuck in the bird house!

Why you may ask?

Well they can't have people walking around with an escaped MEAT EATER CAN THEY AVSJBDJSBS

People are placing bets on it being a bear, but I heard the Wally talky say cheetah enclosure.

Take a Six Mile Hike in Forest Park

You can hike around the perimeter of Forest Park on the Heels Path, passing by the Zoo and Science Center, through the woods, and by many streams and lakes. This is close to a six-mile walk with 194 feet of elevation gain. This trail goes along the outer area of the park on a gravel and paved surface as is known as the Heels Path. The Wheels Path is a fully paved bike line that you can also walk…

Yesterday I volunteered at Alton Pride to do some free face painting for all ages. I don’t have any pictures of that, but I did drag my girlfriend to the amphitheater today for a couple of carnival rides at the expo there and to do chalk art. The amount of little kids excitedly saying “it’s Optimus prime!” made me very happy.

Got bored, took a drive: St. Louis Zoo: Sploots and sleeps edition Aug 8, 2023

Today was full of so many good interactions.

1. I went to an estate sale where the owners, a young couple, had bought the house with everything in it, so they were practically giving stuff away. They were letting their very young nephew take any toy or trinket he could find, so I offered him a little toy I'd noticed. Watching his face go from shy "why is this strange adult talking to me" to delighted "wait someone's giving me a free toy!" was so adorable. Later I asked him if he'd found anything else, and he held up the toy I'd given him and went "I just found this!" 😂 Did you, bud?

2. I took a Lyft from the sale to an FB Marketplace pickup, and the lady was so fun and chatty. After being dropped off I called another Lyft to get home, and watched as the same lady drove back around the corner to pick me up. We had a blast just chatting up a storm all the way home.

3. My hands were totally full as I approached my building, and a little boy out front noticed and opened the door for me. No one asked or pushed him to do it, he did it all of his own accord. He must have been like 7-9, peak age to be oblivious and self-centered, but instead he saw a stranger and his first thought was to help them out. Amazing.

San Diego Zoo receives national recognition all the time. But is it really all that? Or is it just another example of a big population center grabbing all the attention?

Jonas, on Saturday.

We took him to the St. Louis Zoo first. It was cold and windy, not a good day weather-wise to be there, but we did see a few animals. The Gila monsters were safe and warm inside, for example. :)

After lunch we went to the Magic House. We’d taken him there before, and he liked it just as much. Though he could’ve spent the entire time playing in the sink…we’re already talking about getting a special table at home that can hold water.

All in all, he had a good birthday. This is two. 💙💙
