Breakfast, Interrupted

February 3, 2023 by J.B.

Sometimes my brain is in no mood to write a blog post so I go through my phone to see if there are any photos I haven’t posted. Thus, I present to you, apropos of nothing, these photos from last summer of Dora and Cy stopping to watch the train go by as they eat oranges.

    Fantastic! If I didn’t know better, I would swear you posed the two of them! (Old photos always welcomed. )

    You should all have watched this before your caregivers game of trying to eat oranges without using hands! See the experts and how they do it!:joy:

    I’m glad the chimps have the nearby trains for some (unusual) diversion.

    Looks like fun day in the sun watching a train go by with sweet orange juice running down their chins.

    perhaps a movie clip shown to the chimps would put a train in perspective as to its purpose………..people boarding….. the train moving away…..stopping and the people disembarking…….would bring a comparison to them being transported to CSNW……

    One of your better blogs J.B. :joy:…
    Great pictures.

    I hope by now you know that we ( and I dare to speak for everyone who reads the blog regularly…) are like little children and sweets; happy with anything we can get, because we know how busy you are and greatful for any effort you all make to keep us informed.

    We learn something evety day. Apropos of nothing means brilliant.

    GREAT pics. This is the kind of thing I love to see in a place’s front lobby or executive office. Then I’d be thinking “now this is a cool place to work”.
