Oregon Zoo
Back when I was still planning to move to Portland, my good friend Jeff and his girlfriend Jackie bought tickets to come visit me. So the weekend before I started work at Omni, I drove down there to hang out with them. Jeff and I had a good time reverting to our high-school-days styled joking, making fun of the _Macaroni and Cheese du Jour_ or discussing intricacies of video games while poor Jackie looked on helplessly. Here’s a nice photograph from our visit to the Oregon Zoo. Looking at all of the animals helped drive home some of the points in Dawkins’ _The Blind Watchmaker_, which I was reading at the time.
