A Weekend in San Diego ~ Sunday

Posted by Jason Hussong on Thursday, May 5, 2011,

I had to sell a vital organ to be able to afford admission to the San Diego Zoo, but it was worth it. I loved walking the pathways, watching the animals, and considering the ever-chaning internal debate of which animal I would be if I weren't a person. I always thought a polar bear, as have oth
