Two Free Tickets to Feast for the Beast, Houston Zoo Contest

I have two new blog posts on the Houston Zoo website, and they happen to be back to back. CLICK HERE or go to http://houstonzooblogs.org/zoo/ to read them. This is part of a whole campaign with the gorilla that I helped develop, and includes pretty funny movie clips that will continue on the next few blog posts I write next week.

The first is at least somewhat in what I feel to be my style -- a little humorous/tongue in cheek -- a contest to name a Gorilla and an interview I wrote up to help promote a great annual event at the zoo called Feast with the Beasts.

If anyone lives in the Houston area or wants to come in and visit for the Feast, they are giving away 2 free tickets to the event, so feel free to enter the contest!!! It's such a beautiful zoo, especially at night, and it's a rare thing to go visit with the animals then, so many of whom are nocturnal. And it's one of the few events that is adult only there. 50 area restaurants are participating, from simple to swanky and there is beer and wine, keeper chats, animal encounters and a live band and dancing -- this year it's a fabulous swing band called BIG VOODOO DADDY.

Directly beneath that is the second in my Volunteer Extraordinaire Series on Dale Martin, a long time volunteer at the zoo. As with all blogging, comments are always encouraged! :-)

And I wish you much good luck if you enter the contest!
