Virginia Safari Park 2014

Natural Bridge, VA, spent a couple hours admiring the animals after dropping Howard off in Waynesboro for an AMA golf outing. Also saw (but didn't photograph) a ton of deer, some pot bellied pigs, giraffes,rhinos, bongos,and one of my favorite antelopes, the cute Blackbuck, who can barely reach the open window to beg. It just stands there and mews softly...
