I emailed this picture to a dear friend–with this email message:  Deb, I got so excited when I saw the giraffes but they were “too far” away. I was saying “Here giraffe, here giraffe” and they came over. My neighbor said they were posing for me!! I had no desire to be in any other picture–“just a picture with the giraffe–for Deb.”

Here is Deb’s response: “Omg, how cool is that! You can’t see me but I am grinning from ear to ear. They are magnificent creatures, aren’t they? Look how the one (Dad?) is looking at you sideways. And look at the baby! You made my day!”

For more details is “Ha, ha, ha.”
