Two weeks since I updated the last time? About time then. No words come closer to mind than "Time flies". On Thursday I will have been here for a month already. I'm in some sort of in between feeling of my time here just rushing by so fast and at the same time I feel so at home so it feels like I've sort of always lived here. Everything is good with me by the way. I can't really grasp how fortunate I am to get this opportunity to work in the position that I do. It's a lot of work sure, but when your enjoying yourself it doesn't really feel like you're working at all. Since time is going by so fast I try and keep busy all the time and just make the most of my time. So there's stuff I've done and there's still a lot of stuff to do that I hope I will get the chance to enjoy.
Doing some volonteer work with the people working on AFB helping out with the harvest in St. Louis Zoo's herb garden. The herbs are used as enrichment for the animals.
The African Painted dogs (Do you know the Swahili name Helena?) enjoying some of the Lemon Grass we harvested for them,
Out for a walk a few miles from were I live.
Apprently the Montgomery Fair with the city Parade took place last week. I didn't plan to go at first but before finishing work a coworker called and said "Hey you wanna ride the animal shelter float in the Parade?". Well I had never in a parade before so I jumped on that wagon (literally).
Cutest thing on the Parade.
Visited the Whetstone Creek Conservation area and went for a walk. It wasn't the most walking friendly place but more adapted for cars but I managed to find some nice spots anyway.
Encountering Wild Tortoises is a new experience for me.
Mike - A super cool Labrador/Dobermann Mix.
View from the porch. I go out on the porch in the mornings and eat my breakfast just enjoying the view as the sunrises.
Sofia - Were currently longing her and hopefully I will start riding her (and learn a little western riding) by the end of the week.
