The Trip to the Zoo That Ended it All

The Iron Chef had a weekend off - woo hoo - FINALLY (Yes, he's still working 11 straight days without a break). We, as a family, decided that a great way to kick off the weekend was to go to one of the local city zoos for Ms. A. She loves animals right now and we really knew she'd enjoy watching the animals in a low key environment. We knew we'd have a great time ... but most definitely did not know this would be the trip to the zoo that ended it all.

We pulled into the parking lot and saw real animals running all around the place.





The roosters, chickens and peacocks running free were amazing, especially to an almost two year old. Ms. A loved it!











But, it was after our trip to the zoo and on our way home, when our little Olds decided to start having engine problems. We made it to the local GM dealership and the rest is history. We know how our new car and our old car is still sitting in the back of the service center at the dealership.
