Carnivore Preservation Trust

Earlier this summer, we went to the Carnivore Preservation Trust with our friends Justin and Trisha. CPT is a wildlife sanctuary that cares for Carnivores (mostly Tigers) who no longer have a home. I just snagged the pics from them a few days ago, so this is a pretty outdated post. Nonetheless, it is a great place to visit. We highly recommend it to any of the Triangle readers of my blog (all two of you!) Check out CPT and be sure to go on the Twilight Tour. Very cool to see the great work this organization is doing with the amazing volunteer staff there.

Hit Bull, Win Steak

The famous Bull at the Durham ballpark - which reads "Hit Bull, Win Steak". Tuesday night when we went to the game, someone smacked a home run to left field which hit the bull! Nothing special really happened- such a disappointment.

Swimming at Jordan






A few weeks ago - enjoying one of our favorite little places in Durham - this beautiful beach at Jordan Lake. Willie is always excited to show off his amazing swimming skills and it's been a great place to beat the heat. We are still having fun playing with our new camera - I start my photography class on Monday which should be fun.


Have a great weekend!

Duke Gardens

A few weeks ago, we took Willie and our new camera to Duke Gardens to enjoy our casual weekend (no call, no trips!) and play around with our new camera. The gardens are such a cool part of Duke's campus and are beautiful at every time of year. Here are a few shots to share.

Driving Range

100 degree heat doesn't scare us! Doug is officially into golfing, so last night we braved the heat at the driving range to try out his new golf clubs.
