Well, I’m not quite sure I was smart enough to have an attitude about what zoo should be at the time. I was just reveling in the fact that I was working during the summer into something I had always dreamed I would wanna do. Every day was a unique adventure. It was fun. Every day, interesting enough, I met a gentleman, another summer person who had more pull than I did. His family was more powerful, I guess, than mine, but he was a keeper for the summer at the farm in the zoo, which was, “How do you get to be a keeper?” Well, obviously, he was able to do it for the summer. His name was Mike Sulak and he formally went on to become, worked at the Evansville Zoo, worked at Lincoln Park, then became and retired as general curator at the San Francisco Zoo. So he was a colleague and a friend of mine who was this other summer helper kid. And every day, we would want to see at lunchtime, we wouldn’t eat lunch, we would go around the zoo.
