A venture to Woodland Zoo Park on a sunny day was just the ticket to bring back echos of Simon and Garfunkel. I might just be dating myself becoming reminiscent of the sixties, but time doesn't warrant vanity in such issues anymore.
A stone's throw from downtown Seattle had me parking at the zoo in ten minutes flat. I got there just as the haze of morning was burning off and began a zoo-like adventure you just might enjoy...

Judi...
I always liked that song ... I remember when it came out SO many years ago! Great slideshow too!
Hi Richard~ I really had fun listening to the song and fitting part of the video into the lyrics!
Thanks for stopping by..
Zootunes is in full effect too! I saw the Indigo Girls last week and Friday night is Brandi Carlile. Go Go's are next month! Great line-up this year!
Hi Kerrie~ My husband would love to go see the Go-Go's and sing along to "We've got the beat" ! Sounds like a fun date night to me...
Hi Judi,
S & F are long time favorites and the sounds bring back a lot memories for many of us. Coupling the perfect lyrics with images of the Zoo animals is just terrific. Nicely done Judi!
Judi. Nicely done. I too like S&G. You are really doing well with the videos...
Hi Judi - Brilliant idea and great execution! I'm willing to bet there are lots and lots of us here in the Rain who remember that song very well.
Hi William~ I have to admit, I did feel like I stepped back in time listening to At the Zoo so many times while I was editing my photos to somewhat fit the lyrics in spots! I am happy to see my skills improving as time goes by!
Thanks William...
Hi Michael~ I have been picking up tips from the experts in Active Rain. Like you and William!...
Hi Judy~ Thanks! I knew the song would sound pleasant to some!...and I had fun capturing photos of the Gorillas, bears, and giraffes!
Best regards,
Simon and Garfunkel were the best duo...I never understood why they broke up! Thanks for the memories.
Judi-That was very cool. The music really added to the photo presentation. Nice job.
Judi, very well done, I am glad to see you had fun making this, I had fun watching it.
Thanks Chris! I really had fun listening to Simon and Garfunkel as many times as it took to get the slide show matched up! I'm feeling youthful! :)
Have a wonderful weekend...
Judi~
I felt as if I were back in Seattle...and the music carried me along =) THX
Hello Judi and you are the very first person to post to VB's group FRIDAY FAVORITES and are a very clever lady! Even though this post came out in July ... I love it and have featured your post & video at one of my favorite (NEW) Groups at AR ...
VB ;o)
Hi Bob~ Thank you for featuring one of my favorite posts!
It was the first time I actually got lyrics to coincide with the photos, and it was a two day project, between the zoo, photo editing and music line up!
It's fun to see how we progress with our blogs as time goes by.
I will choose more current projects next week!
Best regards from Seattle,
Hello Judi and you are very welcome my friend from Seattle, and did you know VB lived in Portland Oregon back in the late 70s when I was a teenager ... "I Loved it"
VB ;o)
