    Yay for the sun, JB!
    Thanks for the pics. I love seeing Annie’s beautiful hands!
    Missy was probably smart to get out of the window and take her chow to go. I hope Tiny was able to eat all of her portion.

    What a lovely video….friendships, calm and a bit of sun. Just look at Missy go, one handed swing with treat bags in a hand and foot….this should be a category of its own in the Olympics and Missy would get the Gold for sheer style!

    Good day sunshine
    Good day sunshine
    Good day sunshine
    I need to laugh, and when the sun is out
    I’ve got something I can laugh about
    I feel good, in a special way

      What a wonderful post you wrote! Definitely fitting and fun! In fact, the song is playing in my head now. Spokane has fog this morning so hopefully the sun will come out tomorrowww!!!!

    Oh I loved the threesome in the window! And Missy with a treat bag in her toes LOL. Mave and Terry could be siblings or even twins!

    Morning meds : All these years later and Jamie stills enjoys perching upon her firehose while being served.

    Three’s a crowd : There is something about seeing the chimps from behind that I find so endearing. I can almost tell who’s who by the floofy curls on their shoulders and base of their necks!

    Out on the hill : Bipedal Annie!

    Grooming : Almost mirror images with those freckled faces. What an interesting experience to watch up close as Mave grooms Terry. Mave is thorough!

    What a nice sunny day! Alas we’ve had only winter greys and rains here for about a week. I’d rather have snow because at least then it is almost always sunny. My mind is preoccupied today by the loss of Regis at Fauna in Canada. There are only 6, I think, residents left and the day will come when there is but one. I can’t help but think how sad it will be for that chimp. Breaks my heart. I dont think Fauna is in a position to take on more. I think the plan for the director is retirement although i am not sure. I hope they’re having sunshine today!

      Hi Françoise, I too was heartbroken over the loss of dear Regis. There is only Sue Ellen, Binky, Rachel, Maya, Tatu, Loulis and Newton. They have suffered too many losses in recent years. I hope the sun shines down on them also.
