Memphis Zoo

When we got up Wednesday morning  it looked like it was going to be another nice day so we decided to go to the Memphis Zoo. Nola had heard that they had Panda bears there and thought this would be a good opportunity to see them.

We will be leaving the Memphis area on Saturday morning and starting our way further north with plans to be back in Sault Ste Marie by Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. Wow the time sure goes by so quickly it just seems like yesterday we started out on the journey south, but we are looking forward to seeing our family and especially our new Granddaughter.

Well I got to get going here we are going to check out a river boat excursion on the Mississippi, I'll talk to ya'll later and remember "keep your stick on the ice"
