Vacations

So my sister and husband are going to Sudan to engage in a some relief work at the end of August. Since they will have already travelled many, many hours in a plane to get there, they are going to spend the end of their ten days there on a safari in Kenya. I am a little jealous, but mainly I am excited for them. On my brother-in-law's blog he posted this video. It is lengthy, but well worth the watch. Check it out.

In hopes of reclaiming my female readership...

This is so cute, you'll wanna puke.

Survival of the fittest at work, and the evolution of superlions...

I stumbled upon this article about an upcoming National Geographic Channel special called "Relentless Enemies" which follows a population of "super" lions that have made dramatic adaptations to their environment after they became stranded on an isolated island in Africa with herds of water buffalo as their only source of food.

Give the preview a read, then set your TiVo's/DVR's for Friday, December 22 at 8:00 PM Central Time. This sounds really cool!
