This week the kiddos had a day off...
so we spent a perfect fall day at the Toledo Zoo
On our way to see the baby elephant
we spotted this elephant sculpture
that sported some fantastic shadows!
Here's Lucas who was really quite darling romping around!
Follow us as we travel the globe searching for the shadows

I am lovin' your pachyderm shadows...and that little Lucas..so sweet...
Come by for Halloween coffee and a fabulous giveaway.:)
Your word verification right now is duckie..:))
The elephants, real or imaginary, are quite cool. Naturally, the bronze (?) one is a bit quieter, no stomping on the ground if mad. Lucas is the perfect gentleman!
beautiful shadows captured :)
Wonderful contrast between the sculpture and the real thing!!
I agree with "frayed" such a terrific contrast between the sculpture and the real thing! Delightful and such great captures for the day! Hope you have wonderful weekend!

Love both the elephants - great shots!
That sculpture is terrific. And what great shadows too. Elephants are such amazing creatures. When our painting elephant,Ruby, lived (at the Phoenix Zoo) I would visit her at least once a week. We had such joy visiting her.
Love it, girls! I'm an elephant nut so this is right up my alley.
Hope your weather there is as pretty as ours is here.

Hello there girls : )
The baby elephant is such a sweetie pie .. he should have more toys to play with !
The sculpture is perfect for shadow casting ! Well done you !
Joy : )
Great shadow shot, and a cute sculpture.
Have a great weekend.
In the first photo, the elephant looks as if he is delighted to parade his shadows! And Lucas is such a cutie!
GIRLS, IT'S A GOOD THING YOU WENT TO THE TOLEDO ZOO & NOT THE ZANESVILLE ONE, IT WAS LITERALLY A ZOO, SO SAD ;( MISS YOU TWO
Oh, what a set of masterpieces you've gotten at the zoo! Fabulous!
The elephant shot is amazing, hard to tell where the sculpture ends and the shadows begin.
Fascinating.
baby elephants are so adorable!!! love the shadows girls. hope you enjoyed your time off!!!
That is one cute sculpture!
Especially for you, my dears, to celebrate your time with Lucas:
SMALL ELEPHANT CHILD
Small elephant child, please pack up your trunk,
We’re taking a journey today;
Bring all that you need—a toothbrush and such—
We’ll go where the wild things play!
Bidgers and badgers and bollapaloos
Are lurking behind every bush;
You must keep alert and never grow lax—
Small elephant, cover your tush!
The journey is long, the journey is hard,
But if you are willing to go,
You’ll see wondrous sights—ten thousand delights—
Down where the wild things grow!
