Today, volunteer Ken brought out his backhoe to dig holes for the footings of Negra’s cabin on Young’s Hill. He and J.B. have been out there all day working hard, and we’re hopeful construction will be complete in the next day or so. As you can see from the photos below, it’s going to be fairly close to the raceway/entrance to the hill from the Greenhouse. That is being done with Negra in mind since she doesn’t usually venture out too far from the door, but I’m getting the feeling that everyone is going to love the cabin. I’m envisioning 7 cozy chimps grooming each other in their mini greenhouse on the hill. Ahhhh….

    Looks like a winner, thanks for the hard work fellows. Look forward to seeing it completed and the chimps enjoying their club house.
