Thank goodness we have learned a bit about being humane. <br />So glad your hubby is doing better but sorry he still feels he has to over do. That really is a man thing.

I'd like to see that oval/round chapel built into the mountainside. Even in the photographs I found serenity.<br /><br />Like you, I so enjoy watching goats! I have a hard time with zoos because they take animals out of their natural habitats. But the thing is that these habitats are disappearing around the globe and so zoos are ending up protecting animals and saving them from extinction. <br /><br />I'm glad to learn that all is going well. Learning to take life easy and to resist overdoing really takes time. Meniere's is what taught me to listen to my body. I hope your husband learns that as well.

Wonderful the way it's built into the side of the mountain ... <br /><br />Isn't the zoo amazing - and the pens do look to be of a reasonable size .. so lovely seeing the tiger swim.<br /><br />Glad you are taking time out for necessities ... but also good to know you are both coping - despite mini over-dos ... <br /><br />Faith is a delight, but Samson is handsome and cuddly!!<br /><br />Great to see the photos and share your memories - with thoughts ..

But now most zoo's go to trouble to make good habitats for them. I think those zoo's may be the only way some species can survive, since man is killing the animals for their skins, tusks, etc and destroying their natural habitats. Many years ago we went to the Nashville zoo, where you walk along a skyway to see the animals. I remember they had a white tiger and my children couldn't get enough of seeing him.<br /><br />I hope your husband ratchets back some, but don't be mad at him if he doesn't. Sometimes it's important to a fellow to prove to himself he can still do things. I walk down the mountain to get the mail although my doctor tells me I shouldn't anymore.Harry Flashmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05071021900005041592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271959060195052715.post-18134678617053824402014-09-23T05:32:00.348-07:002014-09-23T05:32:00.348-07:00Beautiful photos and i too love that big bolder.
