Hi All,
We had a great visit with Scott, Tara and the boys. They have grown a lot since we saw them last year. Garrett, in particular, is much taller than Sandy, almost as tall as Carl.
Last night the boys went to a sleep over party that failed to live up to its name, very little sleep. We had not seen Wyatt for a while and Scott found him in the pool.
Wyatt is on the school tennis team even though he is home schooled and does not attend. His first match was last Thursday and he won! They are both still very active in scouting. Garret is a Life Scout (at least 10 merit badges) and well on his way to Eagle Scout.
After dinner we went to a Big Cat Sanctuary in north Jacksonville.
We toured the facility then got to watch the cats have their dinner- 10-15 pounds of meat and chicken each, about 600 pounds total, every day!
This place takes animals from zoos that are closing and private owners who can no longer care for them. A 600 pound, nine foot Siberian tiger has grown way beyond the "pet" stage.

The collar on this mountain lion means he is one of their "Ambassadors" that they take off site to promote the sanctuary.
One of many beautiful Siberian Tigers.
This white tiger was our favorite, perhaps because our Safari Trek motorhome had a white tiger mural in a similar pose.
If you are near Jacksonville, check this place out!
Love,
