My love of giraffe

I was looking thru some old pictures and decided I was going to start blogging about some of them so periodically check in to see what I've found...you may be in one of the pics too.

The top 2 pictures were taken May 5, 1970 at the Kansas City Zoo. I was only 15 months old. My Dad is holding me while we are feeding the giraffe. Look at his tongue wrapped around my little hand. I think these are probably some of my favorite photos and always make me smile when I see them. The one below is one of my favorite "famous" pictures. I wonder how many pictures the photographer happened to snap just to get that one special moment.
