I've hit the half century!


Congratulations, everyone, you are now reading my FIFTIETH entry in this blogger weblog. Thanks to all those that have stuck around, even though I know you are few and far between...

I should explain the beautiful photo of our little friend up top... This weekend I went away to Toronto for a few days with a friend, and on the Sunday we walked through High Park, which is a large park on the western outskirts of the city. It's large and sprawling, and accomodates a small "zoo" of sorts. I was especially excited when my friend told me there were bison (more often referred to as buffalo) enclosures. However, she neglected to tell me ahead of time that there were YAKS there as well! I can only assume she witheld this information because she knew how excited I would be.

Anyway, they were beautiful, and there was even a little wee baby munching away on some hay. Man, yaks are humongous! I had no idea! We also saw some huge bison and some highland cattle, which are awesome.... I'd like to share a quote from the weekend, overheard out of the mouth of a little girl as she passed the bison enclosure:

"Mommy, I can see some poo coming out of that one over there!"
