Furry Friday: Walk 2010 pictures
I usually sleep 2am-10am, so being at work at 7am made it a "caffeine day" for me. :) I was tuckered out by the time the day was over. I came back home and slept afterwards.
The official news is that we exceeded our $1 million goal! We had about 5,000 animals and 10,000 people. We were billing it as the largest animal/person walk fundraiser on the planet, and I'm guessing that we succeeded there too.
Last year, I posted photos of the 2009 Walk from everywhere that I could find them, whether I took the images or not. This year, since I actually had the opportunity to go outside and see the event near my building, I'll include only the collection of photos that I took with my camera. Other people had photos of the horse, goat, baboon, guinea pigs, and other species, but most of what I saw was the traditional domestic animal.
Here are my Livejournal galleries:

A few of the highlights, though...

It was fun and rewarding, but it was also stressful and I'm glad that it's over with. It's grown so huge that I've recommended next year they move it out to the Minnesota State Fairgrounds.
