Grand
Rapids’ John Ball Zoo is small, or you could charitably call it compact. Due to
light showers and the kids being back in school, we practically had the place
to ourselves, which was really neat.
Most
of the exhibits were well done,
and gave the animals adequate space and a natural habitat.
Except
for the small aquarium and tropical building, all of the animals were outdoors;
their indoor habitat was off limits.
Overall, the John Ball Zoo provided us with a pleasant experience and a
chance to get up really close to our wild – or almost wild – friends in the
animal world.
Our
sister in law, Jane, makes hand crafted earrings, necklaces, and pendants that
she sells at local craft fairs. They are quite attractive and we thought you
might enjoy seeing them. Some
of the pendants and earrings are made of hammered aluminum wire, and some of
them are embellished with glass beads.
In other cases, Jane has recycled old dominoes into painted and stamped
pendants.
Other necklaces are
made of glass beads entwined with crocheted silver plated wire.
Jane sells her items at local farmers markets and craft fairs. Want One?
She’s one talented lady, isn't she?
