Quimper Hittys 
Not Finnish in ancestry, but always glad to learn more of other cultures….thank you…the gals illustrate history so well.
The Quimper Hittys like to celebrate lots of holidays – history can be fun!
Oh yum, grasshoppers.
I must say that the Hittys hunting grasshoppers this size is akin to big game hunting, and probably every bit as dangerous. I hope they stayed well clear of the hind legs.
They were thinking the big one might have a cello sort of tone, or double bass even, if it could be trained to play on demand…
What a delightful orchestra that would make, and a much better use for these guys than lunch. Constance and Tansy demonstrate their sensible side, yet again.
