    Thank you for the series! It is so nice to have portraits of them all so we can see the changes. Jamie looks so at peace. It just warms my heart.

    what? Jamie is sitting still? (cuz from what we gather she’s so active and busy most of the time!)

    what a greeat photo of Jamie! is that a little tiny pout or a little tiny lip purse? (what do you think?? ShellyK?) she is also so lovely & beautiful with those deep set eyes … thanks!

    oh these photo’s are EXCELLENT!

    Dee ~ I think maybe it’s psychological on my part…….my selected interpretation is that all the chimps are inviting a kiss!! If they only knew ~ they’d likely be very entertained by my lack of awareness regarding their true thoughts – I can see them rolling on the floor laughing…….. 😉

    Does anyone here watch Oprah….duh stupid ? huh?Did yoy know Peta has a whole write up on Doctor Oz for animal cruelty, he kills dogs….he is pne of those demented scientist that tortures and kills dogs…he has to go!!! I have alreadt written her about the chimp she had in one of her O magazines, wait til she gets my letter with graphic pics of what her favorite Doc Oz has done, he is a pig!!!

    A pig….Shelly C? The pigs I know are wonderful friends! I think we need another adjective for Dr. Oz. 🙂

    It is wonderful to look at today’s photo of Jamie and compare it with one of the earlier ones. Her face was quite pale at the beginning. Now it is dark. How lovely to see her getting more healthy.

  8. Shelly Campbell/SR. CA says

    Yes Margaret and /or Karen, I LOVE PIGS TOO!!!!! THEY ARE VERY INTELLIGENT BEINGS>>>>I MEANT IT LIKE THIS>>>>DIDN”T THINK I WOULD HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT BUT::::

    I forget to tell you DIana, I printed about 50 of the mini-bios for you on nice parchment paper, I put them in the box I am sending, they turned out great! I also passed them out at work today, so they are placed all over my workplace, the owner of the company was even asking a few questions about them, now that he has seen the pictures and bios. We also through a big dinner event on Tuesday, and they do introductions of he managers, when they introduced me they mentioned the sanctuary, I thought that was great!

    It looks like there’s a lot of thought and wondering lurking behind those eyes and maybe even some schemes and plans!!!! This is such a great series of portraits, each one is highlighting their individuality and giving us fascinating glimpses into what migh lie beneath. As usual, amazing and thanks so much.

    Well you know, I cannot really use the words I would use on this blog…….thank you very much!!!!!!

    I do not have time to use a dictionary everytime I use the Blog either, so what comes out on the keypad, is not would would come out of my mouth!

    The portrait photos of the chimps are amazing!

    You guys should use these fantastic photos to make things that you can sell … like maybe coffee mugs, tee shirts, key chains and note card sets. I bet that lots of folks would buy those kinds of things, especially with those absolutely beautiful portrait photos on them.

    🙂

    Hey CCC’s ~ I just learned that Tamela is quite a gifted artist – she has a dedication to the Cle Elum Seven on her web site that literally made me cry. I would encourage folks to ask Tamela for her web address – I don’t want to be presumptuous and post it. She has already posted her email address so I know that’s public info – it’s lightnessss@yahoo.com if you want to email and ask for her web site. Wow……

    I am enjoying these chimp portraits SO MUCH!!! I can never get enough pictures & stories about my Cle Elum Seven!! I have a box of troll dolls ready to send over to add to your troll doll supply, so I will send it over soon!! I’m guessing that you probably need to keep a constant supply on hand. 🙂 Thank you for posting the beautiful photos, and Thank You once again for all of the hard work you all do at the sanctuary for those special chimps!! You are all wonderful!!!!!
