Mother's Day

Want to show off my Mother's Day card from last year.

Dear Mom,

There once was a holiday yearly,
To honour the moms
We love dearly,
Which means that every damn time,
The burden is mine,
To tell you I love you,
Sincerely.

Aren't you glad you got
a card?

Love,
David

The Release

And Now, (drum roll) Thumper is Released into the Wilds! OK it's the front yard, but there are plenty of other rabbits there.
Here is David feeding Thumper lettuce in the Chicken Palace.
David carrying Thumper to the front yard. And Thumper in the wild.

I weather is glorious, the trees are flowering. The world is green.

Snow Day

Feb 18, 2007.

Woke up to snow on the ground. Just a dusting, but pretty.
It had been falling when the power went out the night before.
No power for 14 hrs. Very Relaxing.

Thumper

Thumper has moved into the Chicken Palace. She was in a hutch in the coop for a while, but escaped into the larger cage, after a few days.

Catch and Release Program

First the cat caught it and released it in the house.
Then Jim caught it and "released" it into the aquarium.
It escaped and David caught it under the bed, and put it back in the aquarium.
Will it be released back into it's natural habitat?
Into the chicken palace?
Into the house as a pet?
Tune in next week for new developments in our..
Vermin Catch and Release Program.

Chicken Palace

Here they are....the Girls!

They are Aracanua / Rhode Island Red cross.
We are getting 2 eggs everyday.

Zen Shack

Marmy's Shack of Ocean Zen,
After a day of pillaging, and profitering, a pirate needs a retreat that soothes the soul and refreshes the mind. A place that says, "Relax, it's a Game". Upon entering, see the broken Wheel of Samsara, reminding us to let go of desires and aversions. The bunk offers rest for the body. The candles in the window beckon the weary voyagers to enlightenment. Practice "just sit". The chest holds the few items needed for a simple life.
