Discover the hidden gem of the Washington Park Zoo in Michigan City, Indiana, a small zoo filled with well-loved animals. This city-run zoo offers a variety of animals, from lions and tigers and bears to capybaras and fennec foxes. The zoo prioritizes the enrichment of their inhabitants, allowing for interaction and creating a welcoming atmosphere. With its location along the shoreline of Lake Michigan, visitors can even squeeze in a beach trip during their visit.
Membership to the Washington Park Zoo not only provides free parking at the city park but also allows access to other accredited zoos around the United States through the ZAA program. This is perfect for those who want to explore both large and small zoos with shared goals. As the majority of the zoo is located outdoors, it can also contribute to spending time outside and counting towards the popular 1000 Hours Outside movement. If you ever find yourself near Michigan City or heading to the dunes for a hike, make sure to reserve some time to visit this lovely zoo. It's a true gem that the whole family will enjoy.

I always found it ironic a beagle would write about storms, when it seems most dogs (and many cats) aren't very big fans of stormy weather!
We had a big tornado come through our area earlier this week, and I'm so grateful we had oils on hand for pets, and for the kids! Prayer really helped too!
