Kick Back, Relax, & Enjoy the Stories of Us

- I'm the sister of a Coastie who is finally home. I started this blog to entertain him. I'm a Texas girl who arrived by way of Tennessee (& Arkansas and a bunch of other places). I am married to an awesome man and have 2 children: Lamb, my sweet 15 yr. old daughter, and Bear, my entertaining 11 yr. old son. We also have a dog (Belgian Malinois), 2 cats (nothing fancy), lizard (bearded dragon), and a hedgehog. All we need now are fish & a bird! I jest. I work in the Special Ed Resource department at an elementary school.

What an amazing picture!
Glad you told us there is an elephant conservation center. In Florida, is it?
Once we visited a private elephant sanctuary in Arkansas. They cared for eleven unwanted or ex-circus elephants.
nice photo!
What a fun headdress for the elephant! A circus version of a Las Vegas showgirl!
Have a wonderful weekend!
My Camera Critters Here and Here
Wow what a cool picture
I remember..You work in a RR room..my former lifetime. It always bothered me to see elephants in the circus so I am happy if they started something to help...
Love it. Elephants always look so eager to please those they are working for. but I know there have been many mistreated.
.... and all this time I thought jumbos were built by Boeing!!
Enjoyed your Photo Hunt shot too ....
Oh wow! When I was a kid, we also love watching the circus! Too bad there weren't much circus here now.
My critter's up HERE. Happy weekends!
wow that's a critter I saw Pittsburgh zoo got 2 300 pound elepant babaies Whee sandy
Fun, even if I don't like pea green. :) Seriously, I contribute to that Conservation Center.
Oh wow! I love love love elephants!
Wonderful shot. Thanks for stopping by!
I always loved the elephants at the circus!
my goodness! very cool photo. I've never been to a circus before.
Fantastic photo, usogirl. I wonder if elephants think at all about the curiosity of humans standing on their (the elephant's) heads. I do hope B & B treats their animals well. I am of two minds when it comes to animals in captivity, especially those that are put on display for purely entertainment purposes. I enjoy seeing them, but would much rather do so in the wild, were it possible.
Thank you for this - Elephants are my favorite animals. They're so smart. I've bookmarked the link you gave us for when I've more time to read through it. Great CC post!
OMG - GMTA, eh? I swear we don't plan this, folks!
That is one big critter. Nice lighting on this one.
My critter is here
First of all - it's an awesome photo, and I love it!
Second - you and B/S absolutely crack me up. Your friendship is special beyond words, and your mental and spiritual connection with each other is obvious ;-) You two are so much fun!
That's a neat picture!
That's a great photo! It's amazing how small that human looks on top of the elephant. I love elephants, there such big, goofy creatures but so magnificent!
D: That is one big elephant.
that's great! My little guy used to love the circus, not so much anymore! Love the pic!

Great picture! Did I read that right, that you are in Houston, and possibly not far from me? I saw a comment on another blog mentioning Fairmont (Kohl's). I was there today! I'm in Clear Lake, or did you already know that? What have I missed?
Elephants are such wonderful creatures. Very nice photo!
Great picture of the elephant! They are so talented in the Circus!!
That's a super shot!!!!
