These elephants were a part of the traditional “Elephant Walk” at Texas A&M University. It is a long time tradition and if I tried to explain the tradition it would sound even more silly than it is. It has to do with the graduating seniors being as useless as an elephant and the juniors moving up to take their place. Anyway, there were two elephants just a short distance from my work where the students could get their photo taken with them. The trainer was giving lots of interesting information about elephants and you could feed them and get really close to them. Steve and I took a morning break at work and stopped by to see them.
