6/18/01 - The Detroit Zoo with Deb, Phil & Sam - Part 1 of 2 Today we decided to go to the Detroit Zoo. We had a great time! Samuel seemed to enjoy every minute of it! We took so many pictures today, that we had to divide them into two Photo Albums! Be sure to visit Part 2 after you enjoy these. |

 'Okay, guys! Where to now?' Sam says as Aunt Marty, Deb & Phil discuss the plan, and Tara watches the photographer. |
 'Whoa! Look - lil' duckees! Just like I play with in my tub! Hey ma, do these squeak too?' Quickly, Samuel changed the subject... 'Hey, I can't see everyone from my stroller, who's all here anyway...' |

 'Ah! Hi Tara..' |
