For Tour time it's going to be about 90 with about 60% humidity and 15%
chance of rain .... so be prepared for
the weather .... and about a two mile
hike thru the animal areas. And the
chance of rain increases for gathering time, though we do have indoor space
available if the weather gets too wet.

shade .... letting that silly cat Opie do all the work. Obie and Goliath

What? That is a CAT tree? I don't think so, I think it looks like a
fine place for a unicorn to rest on a hot summer day.
