There's a monkey on my back

---

Well Folks,

First a few words of wisdom then on to the fun.

It seems that as we travel though life, we often find ourselves with a monkey on our back. Sometimes you just can't get that monkey off your back no matter how hard you try. Recently we were able to get a huge monkey off of ours.

Now, we will have a monkey on our backs by choice--we just can't figure out what to call him. This is were we need your help.

Here is your chance to "Name that Monkey".

Lynne and I have adopted this little fellow and he will be hitchhiking with us around the world.

This monkey will be featured in many photo updates from the road. Look for him in future post in some pretty strange and exotic locations.

Give it your best shot. We will look over all of the suggested names and post the one we like best.

You can either submit your names in the form of a comment which will be visible to all or (for the shy one's out there) do this by sending a message.

Have fun and we are looking forward to the responses.

Hanuman
Jefry, I had to do a little research about "Hanuman", but once I found it, I quickly realized the significance. Lynne and I actually went by some Humana temples while we were in India. I'll leave you a thought about hanuman for you to translate. Yatra Yatra Raghunath Kirtanam Tatra Tatra Krita Mastaka anjalim Bashpawari Pari purna lochanam Marutim nammascha rakshas antakam Thanks for the input my friend.
