Bear Food

A change of plans ensued for today's adventure. Instead of the Sandia Mountains, we did the Wildlife West Nature Park. An outdoor Zoo if you will of animals that are injured or for some other reason cannot be released back into the wild. The folks learned of it through a short blurb in the newspaper. Today's special special treat was the park staff gave tours in the back yard to get a much closer look at a bear.

I think I'll pass on a hand shake, but nice to meet you. They were feeding him grapes to keep him in line. This guy was salivating all over the place! Just a big teddy bear in the end.

There were other animals at the park, but the only other item of interest was this butterfly. If only I could get better focus on a close up. Oh well, I'll just have to do with this . . .

I've been trying to get a photo of a butterfly for quite some time now. By far, this is the best I've been able to do.

After our adventure, we flew home for SUPPER - spaghetti with:

Pray for Taste Spaghetti Sauce
1 8-oz can tomato sauce
1/4 cup minced onion
1/8 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp basil
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp sugar
1/8 tsp garlic powder
salt to taste.

Combine all ingredients in a sauce pan. Bring to boil, then lower to simmer for 20 minutes. Top on cooked spaghetti and chicken, beef, whatever.

I can't believe it actually turned out!!! An experiment! Mark your calenders!

Anyways the dishes are clean and I'm in chill mode. See ya.
