Day 258 – I was going through some old photos today and I came across this one. We were at the Lincoln Park Zoo and the seagulls were out near the food court looking for lunch.

Day 256 – We discovered this little nest in our backyard tonight. I am not sure if it has been abandoned or not. Guess I’ll have to keep an eye out for mom and dad.

Day 251 – This is pretty much how I looked watching the opening ceremonies of the Summer Olympics in London tonight. I am sure many will disagree with me, but I just didn’t get “it”.
