Fun at the Zoo

Meghan and I had a great time at the zoo last week with Shannon and Rhys. The weather was beautiful and, since much of the place was still closed for the season, the crowds were minimal.


I got some really great pictures of the animals. This bearded lizard was so excited that I was taking his picture. He followed me around his cage, posing the second he saw the camera. You can see the smile!

I'm not sure this snake was as excited, but then again, I'm no expert

Meghan enjoyed exploring and climbing on everything she could find.

Easter Egg Hunt

Meghan had so much fun hunting for eggs yesterday. Unfortunately Mommy and Daddy were laughing too hard to get any good pics. I hope to get some video and Meghan's account up soon.

Budding Artiste

Check out the penmanship on the signature!

Just Like Grandpa

Meghan: "Look Mommy - the composter has white whiskers just like Grandpa!"

Elmira Maple Syrup Festival

Meghan here, reporting for Schwindt Blog news.

Today, during the coldest day of spring thus far, we attended the Elmira Maple Syrup Festival. We went by train, my absolute favourite way to travel! I got to meet the conductor but forgot to ask him the engine's name. Since I didn't know it, I decided to call him (the engine) Fluffy.

The two other things I enjoyed about the festival were:
The eats
and Old MacDonald's Farm
