Bliss

     Today is the first day of attendance for the local elementary school.
This translates to two weeks of bliss at TheZoo. We begin school on Sept 17th.
     It is after ten, and there have been no little knocks on the door. No one that isn't referred to as a
Zooligan has required a mediator or a snack.
     My big debate today is whether to get started on all of the little projects that I wanted to work on over the summer but didn't, or to spend the day basking in the silence at the front door. Keeping in mind, of course, that this is the only silence that will be had. It's been raining buckets here. Outdoor play is likely limited to bike riding, but that's okay. I feel like I'm on vacation!  It may not be everyone's idea of bliss, but today, that's the word that applies here!
