When we arrived at the sanctuary this morning we had sun showers and a full rainbow over the sanctuary property. You know, those crazy sprinkles coming from a seemingly cloudless sky? And when volunteer, Ruth, arrived a few moments later, she said the chimp house appeared to literally be sitting at the bottom of the rainbow. It does so often feel that this special place is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
The chimps have been soaking up every ounce of autumn sun as the rains are starting to make their way here. They all ran out with gusto this morning after breakfast, together, but then each spreading out in their own direction, their own ray of sun.

CSNW is a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, I am convinced. “….each spreading out in their own direction, their own ray of sun.”, oh my that line touched me because it too is so true. Katelyn your love and admiration for the chimps is woven through your words, painting a story that brings your blogs to life right before my eyes. Thank you.
These are wonderful photos from today. Especially fun seeing Jamie in her colorful fortress resting up for her big B-day. Can’t wait!
What lovely pictures. The chimps are so content in these photos:) Thank you for all you do for them. Hugs to you all?
