Brutality And Unjust Laws Cannot Defeat Us

A few photos from the beginning of September and Labor Day Weekend. A great big thank you to American labor for your tireless efforts to institute a forty-hour week and fair working conditions, and the three-day weekend that officially ends the summer of my boys' third year.

Sam was asked to throw a rubber snake to a roadrunner-like Australian bird at the zoo's Birds of Prey show. The bird then demonstrated how it would pluck at, brain, and then eat a snake in the wild. The show also featured a parrot who could cluck like a chicken. Worth the trip.

Sam feeds a goat. When we attempted this last summer, his reaction was much more like that of the boy in the background.

For being such city kids, our guys sure love farms. Buy small, eat local.
