Just a sample of Sam’s creativity behind the camera lens. She captured this during our photo field trip to the wildlife park today.

The weather in my neck of the woods:
It is a beautiful sunshiny day outside and I have been inside updating study guides for Spring semester. Will be heading into the beautiful day in about an hour to head to the big city to give the last Final Exam of Fall semester.

Thanks to Linda at 2nd Cup of Coffee for this holiday Random Dozen.
