Hunting with Mike

This picture is of two of my most favorite things-my granddaughter Ava and Cabala’s. I am fortunate enough to have 10 grandkids, and it’s great when I get to spend one -on- one time with them. Ava wanted to go to Cabala’s with me, but she wasn’t so sure about getting too close to these “giant bears!”

I think the residents of Monroe county are,(especially the outdoors people) blessed to have this unique retailer in our midst. As far as I know it is the biggest tourist attraction in the state. I have found that if you want to keep the crowds to a minimum, forget the weekends and evenings. If I get there in the morning (before noon) the crowds aren’t bad. When you come in the front door, a Cabala’s employee will ask you if you have a Cabala’s charge card? If you don’t-I highly recommend that you do. You build up Cabala’s points on any purchase anywhere, and as long as you pay your card on a monthly basis, it’s money to spend in the store. Of course if you start paying charge card interest it negates the “points” benefits. Check it out if you get a chance.

My granddaughter really enjoyed our safari, and seeing the live fish in the huge aquarium. I would of taken more pictures, but the battery went dead on my camera. She wanted her picture by the big elephant, which I was able to get, but her favorite animal (the giraffe) wasn’t there. That must be the only animal missing from the Cabala’s displays. If you have never been to the Dundee Cabala’s you are missing out on quite an attraction. By all means put a visit on your to-do list; you won’t be disappointed. Take your kids or grandkids-it’s a great way to spend an afternoon.
