GENERATIONS OF BEAVER BELIEVERS

This is Leslie and her daughter Missy in their lovely home in Solano county. As a child Missy was a great lover of beavers and filled her entire bedroom with a growing collection of her favorite things, (Clearly a child after my own heart). Together they volunteered for the Lindsey beaver project at MVSD in 1998 and she even remembers kits walking out of the water directly over her own feet! For a host of reasons I shared earlier that I believe one of those kits was our original mother beaver  with her distinctive tail!

Now that her daughter is an adult and married  Leslie needs to repurpose the room she has decided to part with some of the beavers. (imagine!) She wanted them to go to someone who would love them as much as they both did and contacted me earlier this year about a possible donation. Which means not only were they very generous for beavers they had to fork over BRIDGE toll just to give them away!

I thought maybe we could help them find homes with lucky children at our 16th festival. Maybe another great beaver giveaway? Maybe a game show? A treasure hunt? What do you think?
