Earlier this week I was horrified to hear that some stupid ***hole stole a valuable prize monkey from our local zoo. Not only was this bad because this little monkey was just a baby, only three pounds and sick, but this particular monkey was on loan to our zoo from another zoo. The father of this [...]
Finally the day arrived that my daughter has been waiting for since she first started playing the violin. Today was their musical festival day and competition. There were a lot of schools represented at this event and over 115 children were performing. The kids worked really hard this past year on learning the violin and [...]
