Murderface

We're heading to Baltimore this weekend for the anime convention Otakon. We just planned this last week so there wasn't much time but I wanted to have a costume for the first time. I settled on Murderface from Metalocalypse because his outfit is simple but recognizable.

Dizzy the Armadillo

Here is the promised video from the zoo. I think it turned out pretty neat.

Cleveland Zoo

After a bit of a let down with the Columbus Zoo, I had been really wanting to check out the Cleveland Zoo again. When we woke up Wednesday it looked like it was the start of a beautiful day so we decided to jump on the chance to go. We arrived a little after the park was opening and it was packed. There was a slow moving line of cars just to get to the parking lot! It was a great time and I got to take a bunch of pictures of some of my favorite animals.

Capiberra


Seahorse


Butterfly


And my favorite, the Tortoise.


I also got a great video but I have to wait to post it until I get a hold of the right music.

Shiba Pic of the Week #2

I like to think that the look Daku is giving in this picture says "Hey. How's it going? There is plenty of room on this couch for you. Why don't you come over and we can get to know each other a little better."

Woolfest @ the Farmpark

Saturday, Crystal and I decided to check out the Lake Metro Farmpark. It's another thing that I have just never heard of despite all the years I have been in Cleveland. This weekend happened to be Woolfest at the Farmpark, so there was a little bit more going on than usual. There was shearing demos, vendors & you could pick up a pound of wool for $1. Amazing! It was a stunning day and it was fun to go around but I definitely think the Farmpark is a go once and your good kind of place.

I was able to get a couple in your face animal shots. Some are better than others but I think they are all pretty fun.






Here is a picture to remind you that the grass is always tastier on the other side of the rusty dangerous-looking fence.
