My favorite place as a kid. The Gladys Porter Zoo!


First time to see hippos!

I have a picture of me at the same age sitting in this exact spot.

T. hanging with the tigers.

My kiddos feeding the very birds that terrorize and dive bomb me. I was screaming and dodging their attacks the entire time I was in the aviary cage.

T. had the most fun chasing the peacocks around!


My fave animal as a child. I thought the colored hineys were hilarious.
