Monday letters: Treat yourself to Riverbanks Zoo

rthompson@thestate.com

In my teens and 20s, I used to visit Riverbanks Zoo and Botanical Garden with my family and with my friends, and it made me love and appreciate how animals are all God's creatures. As a young man it was a great experience to see all the elephants, lions, seals and alligators on display.

If you haven’t already done it, please take your families to the Riverbanks Zoo this summer. You would truly enjoy the animals, along with the spectacular natural habitats and scenic river views.
