    Those were indeed happy moments. Fascinating how all 3 groups of chimps love their slinky.

    I think those LA chimps mist be blasés about tap dancing. But it’s okay, cause Neggie loooves your dancing!
    And now Burrito also wants to race the gator!

    Those moments made me happy, too! The next field of raspberries might not be quite ready tomorrow, but I’m enjoying some excellent Canadian strawberries (local ones are all sold out)!
    Hope you all have a good weekend!

    For a moment there, I thought that we were seeing the return of Missy the Ghost (cf., 1.13.2017 blog). What a joy it is to observe Jamie brachiating high above the greenhouse floor, and Burrito giving the Gator a run for its money (it looks like the cattle were also trotting along), and Rayne mastering the slinky. And now, at last, we know the source of all those raspberries that Willy and his friends articulate to their human neighbors.

    Do you think the beautiful 3 remember the new arrivals? Also, do you know were Gordo got his name?

    So Thàt’s how you dance Anna, I can see why Negra loves it!!
    Those slinkies are very “giddy-making-toys” aren’t they??
    And lovely to see The Lucky 6 greeting you in the morning; they look calm and content!
    That makes me happy.

    Another slinky fan! What a touching video. Thanks for making me cry happy tears before work.?

    Nothing worse than giving your best performance and having audience walk out before intermission! Lucky is tough critic. But Ryane and Cy were captivated. (Ryane, like Negra, appears to a dancer at heart.) And I believe Rayne wanted an encore! And her droopy lip face whil playing with the slinky, she’s just marvelous.

    Fresh raspberries to pluck with your lips and savor, BFF’s forever, to be able to waltz (or drive the mule!) between the bovines and the chimpanzees…. it is all magnificent. Happy moments indeed!
