Memorial Week 2012

As has become custom, the CT Quinns traveled south for Memorial Day; first the beach, and then to see how Baltimore is holding up.  Unlike last year, Evan had developed an aversion to walking or sitting in the sand, which kept him well clear of any riptides, but also relegated him to a shaded blanket for several days.  He was content to play with the sand, so long as he didn't have to be on it.  He also visited with his cousins while up in town.

Weather was more cooperative this year than others, and we had great weather to visit the Baltimo...ahem, the Maryland Zoo.  While the National Zoo was free, has a panda and more golden lion tamarins than China has people, the Maryland Zoo was much closer and had plenty of animals to keep Evan happy, including several (zebras...plenty of them, a polar bear, prairie dogs, to name a few).  Evan and cousin Jonathan had some quality time to discuss the how the zoo has evolved over the last 30+ years (or maybe that was their dads).
