If you live in Macomb, Oakland, or Wayne counties, please vote on Tuesday, August 5th.

I don't care about all the politicians, and what they are running for.  What I care about is the millage for the Detroit Zoo.

If this millage is not passed, the Detroit Zoo will have to close down.  I don't know what would happen to all the thousands of animals that call the Detroit Zoo their home, and I don't want to find out.

All this millage will do is cause a very small raise in property taxes that, in the long run, will equal about $10 a year.  That annual $10 will generate enough revenue for the Detroit Zoo, that they will be able to stay open to the public.  There are so many wonderful programs and events that happen at the Detroit Zoo all year long, that it really is a treasure to the South Eastern Michigan area.

Just last week, they opened up a brand new meerkat habitat.  There is a baby zebra running around with all the adults, and a baby polar bear too!

Hi everyone! 

I'm going to be participating in the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life in West Chester Ohio on Mother's day weekend.

Please donate to my adventure in Relay.  It's a very worthy charity, and it's easy to donate.  All you need to do is go to my participant page and click on the star that says "Donate".  It's that easy! 

Just make a donation of a flat amount.  Don't worry about paying per lap, or any of that silliness. 

Then, after you donate, your name will be listed in my "Fundraising Honor Roll"  .  How cool is that?

Right now, I don't have any donations listed on my participant page.  Let's see who will be first!  :-)
