It’s raining–again! Fortunately not still. True, we need the rain, but it can rain at night and let the sunshine during the day. It’s just a simple request!

These pictures will almost catch me up.

First is my latest visit to the Sacramento Zoo. I’m enjoying our small zoo while I can. In 5 years, it will take at least 2 days to see all of the new Sacramento Elk Grove Zoo.

That was good!
Our new young lioness.
Loving a lettuce snack.

Second is the trout run at the Nimbus Fish Hatchery. There were many fishing boats on the American River that day. At the hatchery, the trout are caught, eggs are expressed, trout are released back into the river, their eggs are hatched and when ready released into the river.

Last is our hunt for apple blossoms. We found one accessible orchard, but didn’t go on the property, but stayed on the side.

We also stopped for a barn and an old building we saw along a country road.

I have just one more outing to catch me up. See you next week! Hopefully, the sun will be shining!!

      1. That’s our area. We haven’t had significant rains in quite some time. It’ll affect the wildflower display we have. There shouldn’t be large fields of wildflowers this year in our area.

  7. I agree – rain at night, sunshine during the day – or at least nice, gloomy clouds! Nice series – but I will say the blossoming trees are my favorite!

    1. I enjoy visiting our small zoo. I can see all the animals in about 1 1/2 hours, which is about all I can walk without resting. The zoo will be moving to Elk Grove to a much larger space where the animals will have more room to roam. But it will take two days to see all the animals. Change! It will be great for the animals.
