Spring Fever

March 25, 2011 by Jackie

The other day it was finally warm enough that I could open the barn doors in the playroom. Because of the cold it’s been a while since we could do that, so the chimps were so excited! Everyone started pant hooting and ran over to enjoy the fresh air. Jody immediately began to build a giant nest using several blankets and a sleeping bag but alternated between nesting and chasing silly Annie and Missy around the playroom. Jamie put her hands in the kiddy pool and chased folks around with it. Everyone was super playful and goofy, and spent quite a bit of time hanging out and enjoying the sun and spring-like air.

Here are a couple of photos of Jamie relaxing in the green hand chair donated several months ago by volunteer Pam:

And Jody in her sleeping bag nest:

Happy Spring, everyone!
