Workin' In The Rain....

Update: Finished the Hutch. Bugs is enjoying his spacious quarters.


Gettin' soakin' wet! Makes me want to sing. It's another rainy day, but the temperature is in the mid-fifties, so not all that unpleasant. It's a really soft, gentle rain. I can see the grass growing and the colors everywhere getting more and more green.


We started building a larger pen for Bugs Bunny on Saturday. Worked on it again today, but after getting pretty well soaked, we decided to finish it another day. It will be about 21 square feet of space, much more spacious than his current lodging. Bugs will just have to put up with his crowded quarters a little longer. The photo here was taken Saturday when we were just getting started. It was too wet to take the camera out today for a picture of our progress.




While the boys were looking for mushrooms, I stayed in the short grass. I like to avoid any potential snake encounters. I did see some nice frogs around the pond.






I did take a couple pictures again from the windows looking out. Everything looked so fresh and pretty. I especially enjoyed the red berries on the bayberry shrubs. They make a nice contrast to all the green. I also noticed we have two homesteaders in the bayberry bushes. One is a cardinal's nest and she's sitting on eggs. The other appears to be a robin's nest. We'll have fun watching their young hatch and grow. Just another wonderful day at our place! We're so blessed!
