                     SAFARI!

  If you have the capability of watching today's

video blog please do so! These words fall far

short of describing the variety of animals we

saw during yesterday's visit to the Claws and

Paws Animal Farm near Lake Wallenpaupack.

I have, however, included a few photos here.

Here is a place where you can truly see lions,

and tigers, and bears! And about 297 other

exotic animals from all over the world!

There was a time when most any fair sized

community had its own zoo. Scranton had onr

in Nay Aug Park. Wilkes-Barre had one in

Nesbitt Park. One by one they have

disappeared and young people's best chance

of seeing some of the creatures that enhabit

and share our planet is on television. That's

not going to cut it. Learning comes best up

close and personal. Thankfully facilities like

Claws and Paws exist to care for and share

some of these animals with the rest of us!

Hope you'll visit there and that all your NEWS

is good!
