Today is avid chimp fan and Cle Elum Seven friend, Marie Cross’ birthday, and her husband, Peter, sponsored today in honor of her. The couple has been following us closely on our blog, as well as on Facebook and Twitter, for about a year now, and have, of course, fallen in love with the “magnificent seven”.

We just can’t thank you two enough for supporting the chimps and we wish you the best of birthdays, Marie! As you said to Jody on her Facebook Page on her birthday: “you deserve a million roses on your special day xxx”.

    Happy Birthday to you, I know you will have enjoyed your day today because we have spent it at Twycross Zoo with some of your work friends, and seeing more of our primate pals. We are lucky they have chimps, gorillas, orangs, bonobos and every gibbon you can think of. I also echo Marie’s words by saying what good friends we have made through the CE7, the blog and everyone else at CSNW. Young’s Hill is gaining momentum fast and these are going to be exciting times watching it grow. Hope everyone has a great weekend.
