A trip to the zoo - Gladys Porter Zoo in Brownsville - was fun for all. Here's Gram A with Drew and Lauren joining the family.
We got to stay with the girls while Aaron and Tarin had a 'get-away' trip so we made it special. First, we took them to a surprise dinner out where they could choose anything and everything to eat (Golden Corral :) then we took them to one of our 'special places' in the Valley: Santa Anna Wildlife Refuge. We got to ride the Tram and take the tour and see a strange and wonderful place.
Here's Pa Gary with the girls - we just climbed to the top of the Hawk Tower to get a 'birds-eye' view of the woods and the Rio Grande River.
Another day we took a 'birding tour' closer to home - Ramsey Birding Center in Harlingen. We hiked the small park and saw a great number of our unique local birds. I think some of the prettiest 'birds' I saw were sitting on this bench.
