We always went to the zoo, St. Louis Zoo, at least twice a year. My parents didn’t even own a car. We would get on the bus and ride to the zoo. At that time, the zoo’s in Forest Park. We would get off the bus with our jug of Kool-Aid and our picnic basket and find a picnic table in the middle of the park, and set it up there. And we would leave it sit there, and we’d go into the zoo. Come out at lunchtime to have our snack, and then leave it all on the table, and go back in the zoo for the afternoon, and then get on the bus and go home.
