A couple of Cold Monkees

Yes, everything you were told is lie! Monkees don't all hail from tropical regions at all! They are alive and well in the Great White North! Descendants of a tribe that trudged across an ice bridge from Madagascar in the Pleistocene Age over a million years ago (you didn't know about THAT either did you!)
In order to survive with their less than woolly hair they learned to adapt by weaving moss and lichen into very spiffy parka's to keep themselves warm.

However, despite Global Warming there are still days when the mercury dips to levels that leave them feeling like very Cold Monkees.

These two are currently visiting David Paterson at his Glass Blowing Studio in Merrickville, Ontario. Not too far from Ottawa, the Nation's Capital.

  1. oh my gosh, these snugly monkees are just too adorable! (of course, if I had made them, I would have made their noses blue and runny, like mine every time I go outside in the cold....ok too much info, but at least I made you smile!)
