Phoenix Zoo—24 December 2009
It’s gloomy, cold, and wet in Chicagoland today. I hope my choice for Photo of the Week will add a little color and happiness to your day. I wish you all a happy, safe, and warm weekend (holiday or not). See you next week!

The silver/blue feet at left belong to my “baby” (14½ at the time). This shot is at the beginning of his 1st official race (not at school), which he entered with Auntie Sarah (one of my sisters). Although it was a bit nippy that morning, he had a great experience <i>and</i> earned a trophy!](https://photos.smugmug.com/Photo-of-the-Week/Photo-of-the-Week/i-5vDn7dZ/1/9d8f5c0b/Ti/2010%20PRCC%205K%200016%20legs-Ti.jpg)
![<b>Who da cat?! Phoenix Zoo—24 December 2009</b>
You may have met this gorgeous creature already in the Lions and tigers and bears--oh, my! gallery. I’m a BIG cat fan (and fan of big cats). I spent some quality time with this one on a beautiful Phoenix afternoon last December. Thanks to NTS, who chose this week’s feature. Fierce!
