Thank you!

Old but good article about monkeys learning to use money...

Definitely a good read!  Thanks, Patti!  A of T

A really good read! Thank you! 

Shaky and all involved in working on this :-)  Thank you so much for all you do in bringing our falcons to us and be careful out there in that cold and snow.     

    

A 2005 Greeting from Linn P (with a little help from Dale).  Linn, my friend, I will never forget you.   

I remember this, liked it then and even more now! 

That is so sweet and precious! 

Speaking of making stuff, Donna's daughter made the santa that is her current avatar!  A very creative family!  Yes, I'm blowing your horn, Donna!

I was wondering about that. I couldn't pin it down. Great job! It bowled me over.

What a pin-head...LOL. Yes, we make these and my daughter gives them to her friends on the bowling league. Oh what fun it is....we are doing team snowmen now. GO .......!

Shaky's a real comedian You gotta love it 

But Donna these are really cute...great job your daughter did on these!! 

What an awesome picture of Bobbin!
Thanks Donna for posting!   

 

 

I sure wish Beauty would entertain us all Winter like this. Her presence at the cam would be rewarding. At least we have MAK's pics!

I do too...Maybe she will show up one day when we least expect her 
MAK's pics are great and what dedication in all that snow....
  to MAK !!!

If I had that kind of money I'd give it to people who are out of work, in danger of losing their homes or have already lost them and are hungry.  That must be a horrible place to be in.  I would do what I could to help them.  Unfortunately all we can do is donate to suitable charities in smaller amounts and to local food banks and toy collections.   If only wishes were dollars we'd be able to do more than just the small stuff.

Yes you are so right!  I like to think a lot of the small stuff adds up too!
I see the big pile of toys we have collected so far in our office and it makes me smile to think that because of these there will be smiles on the faces of these poor kids on Christmas! 

  to you both!

Thank you Donna!
