Family outing at Red Mountain Park!

omg This is the first time I have ever done this. I don't think I can do it again if I tried. It will take me lots of practice before I can do it again, because I really don't know how I did it. I used some of Ravencajuns advice from the last time it was on here and I just tried to use some of debby_ab advice she just gave Joann. Even though I couldn't read what debby wrote on the side. Anyhow this is a picture of one of the rugs that I make. I had to hang it on my DD clothesline to get a picture. You can see how the rows are on the gray better than on the flowered material. It has approximately 160 rows on it. Now if only I can figure out how to get the pictures off of my camera I would feel really proud.

No to fault your pictures but I hate seeing those chimps in captivity.

Fran, I want to bring them all home, too. "Orphans" or "distressed" pulls on my heart. For some primates, I'm sure they are safer where they are, but still, they need huge, miles and miles of natural enclosures with limited human exposure.

I love all these photos!

Wow a plethora of great pictures! Love them all.

This monkey, also from the Rio Zoo, I managed to set free from captivity.

but only virtually, through the power of photoshop.
