Lions and Tigers and Elephants ...

The highlight of our time in Portland was a speedy trip to the Oregon Zoo. Move over scorpions and tortoises ... hello polar bears and penguins!



J How had only one mission in mind ... to find the elephant exhibit! We practiced what an elephant said all afternoon with perfection. But once How saw the elephant and I asked him what it said ... his response ... "QUACK!" Quack?


He was also pretty taken with the polar bear ... although he was a bit disappointed his gigantic white friend was napping in the middle of the day. From the looks of this picture ... J How could have taken that polar bear with one hand!

But when How realized that he really was quite a bit smaller than his fuzzy friend ... I think he was okay with just watching him sleep!



And ... not so much a fan of sleeves and a hood! "Off, off!" We really branched out in OR .. sleeves, jackets, pants and socks! The kid was on fashion overload!


And J How and Uncle J How take a minute to check out the zebras ... black on white or white on black? It was a truly intellectual and deep conversation until J How (the mini version) announced that he was done ... "BYE!" And so ... the world will continue to wait to outcome of their debate.
