Seriously, how cute is this photo?

He was scared of the sheep, but he was still brave and fed them. (Aunt Jenny had to help, because there was no way mom was letting a sheep lick her hand)

Isaac loved this porcupine. You can't see, but he was sticking his nose and paws through the cage towards us.
We went to the Elmwood Park Zoo today. I had a teacher's pass for free admission into the Philly Zoo, but found that with admission for Isaac and my sister, plus 12 bucks to park, there was no way we could afford that. And the Elmwood Park Zoo was wonderful!
So my job ended which is sad. Who knows when I will be working again if I don't have a decent interview pretty soon. I am still a sub, but who knows when there will start being sub jobs again. Pretty scary.
In the meantime I am trying to make the most of it, hence our zoo trip. Yesterday my sister and I had a "Slackers Day" at the shore. Surprisingly, we were able to round up a total of seven people who had nothing better to do on a Monday than lay around on the beach and tossing around a football. It was a fun day. I was pretty vigilant about the sunscreen too, so I didn't even end up totally fried like normal. Sadly, it was not the
best possible beach day. I don't think I have ever seen the water so calm and flat. There were seriously no waves; you could see for miles. We tried and tried to boogie board but to no avail. Also, there was a seaweed issue. The first 5 to 10 feet of the water was this horrible curtain of seaweed with all of these little crustaceans mixed in. So if you did manage to catch a wave, you ended up being enveloped in a thick layer of green gook. It was a really sick sensation. Gotta love the
Jersey Shore. Other than that, it was a great day, that no one really documented on film.

The tortoise pic is great! My first thought was "turtle! turtle!"
Hopefully you'll find a good job soon. My dad's wife in York is having a hard time finding a teaching job. They're hoping that, as it gets closer to the start of the school year, the districts will get more desperate and start hiring.
