The truck blew 3 tires on the way to gas her up. This may take awhile.

Apparently, I took pictures of the only three-toed sloth on display in the U.S:

From this Boing-Boing article (external link):

There are six species of sloths—four species of three-toed sloths and two of the two-toed variety. Of those, only the two-toed species are frequently found in zoos. It comes down to an issue of movement and diet. In the wild, two-toed sloths move more than 40 meters a day through the treetops, said Moore. Three-toed sloths move much less.
The result: Two-toers have a more varied diet—enjoying everything from lettuce, to boiled yams, to grapes. (They really, really love grapes.)
Meanwhile, other sloths eat almost nothing but parts of the Cecropia tree. Such picky eaters aren't easy animals for zoos to take care of, but it has been done. The Dallas World Aquarium, for instance, has the only three-toed sloth on display in the United States [EMphasis mine]. They make it work, Moore said, because that particular three-toed sloth is very comfortable with humans—and because there are Cecropia trees in the parking lot.

How cool is that!?

That sounds SO fun!

I love getting packaging with the wrap with the huge bubbles in it. The boys ADORE it. I have to fight them for it but it's so funny to lay out on the floor and let them have at it.

It's 9am here and there's still a very orange sunrise color to the sky above the foothills and Rainier and below the clouds. :) It's great! I get some awesome views at work :)
