This one is for Barb

It's been a while since I've done any beaver hat updates. I was saving it for a fun event. So, on my first trip to Sea World San Diego, I decided to bring it along. Here are the highlights of the day. (I was even sporting one of my TRY shirts as a tip of the cap to the folks back east.)

A tribute to my past as a dairy farmer:



Hanging loose, surfer style:



A guest appearance in the hat by my little sister:



Stopping to smell the flowers:



And the beaver stopping to smell the flowers:



Getting a little wild, in the polar bear cave:



A tribute to Cherney's "construction worker" photo from LMCO. Do I look like authorized research personnel, to you? And I get a little scared sometimes when I see just how much the beaver hat and I look alike. (No wonder I've spent a lifetime being picked on about my teeth.)



And the shot you saw before...at the manatee rodeo. That manatee was hot! I burned my thighs a little on that one. No wonder manatee riding hasn't caught on.
