Saturday afternoon we carpooled with the grandparents to the Tulsa Zoo. Susan has a “Zoo Friends” membership, and she and the kids have been to the zoo several times already this summer. This was my first visit since probably 2003. Grandma said that in 20 years in Tulsa, she didn’t think she’d ever been to the zoo.

Susan needed some photographs of her quilts for the quilting class she will be teaching soon, so we set out to find a suitable location. We started at the Harwelden Mansion. We weren’t thrilled with the quilt pictures there, but I did get a chance to take my first Tulsa Penguin picture. We had better luck at the River’s Edge park. The kids played on the playground, and Susan waved bubbles around.
