Shyun Visits Betty at San Jose

Betty got a visitor at the San Jose show.    Shyun lives in Cupertino, just a stone-throw away.  It is unusual to have such a close by location for a rabbit show, she comes by to visit.   

 

I started teaching at SJSU in 1974, have had many wonderful students and made many friends.   Shyun maintains the longevity record.  Shyun was in my graduate Economics classes around 1980-1981, we found out that we had a common interest: animals.   After I got my first French Lop in 1981 and had a litter in 1982, Shyun asked to have one as a pet and she has rabbits as pets since.   She and her children visited my home and shows off and on, their photos appear on our blog quite a few times.   In some photos, her children were still kids, now they are all adults and have their own families.   She has been an accomplished CPA after receiving her master's degree from SJSU, now near retirement.    Time flies.
