Dave Out Loud: Undecided, Undeclared, Unsure Day

Now that the A to Z challenge for 2024 is in it's final hour and my final post dropped early this morning. I think it's apprropiate to go back to 2024 where my theme was holidays especially manufactured ones. On the vowel days I let the vowels pitch me ideas for holidays with their letter in it. This is what U came up with...

We are celbrating the 2nd Undecided Undeclare Unsure Day today. I'll be back soon with a reflection post from the challenge.

Z is for Zoo Afficianado

#AtoZChallenge 2025 letter Z

My A to Z Challenge Theme this year is the ABC's of me.  Each day in the month of April with the exception of Sundays I will be posting about one aspect of my life that begins with the letter of the day.  Today's letter is Z so let's get right to it shall we?

A was for Amateur Parodist







 



Z is for Zoo Aficionado

 Today is the last day of the challenge and to wrap things up here is Dave Out Loud reporting from the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicag Illinois.  




Here are some zoo pics from the last year or so

That's it we've got a polar bear catching some Z's at the Zoo.  No better way to leave an A to Z challenge than that. It's been a pleasure and I'll be back soon for a reflection post.
