If you don’t think, then you shouldn’t talk. ~March Hare, Alice In Wonderland

I had a visitor this morning. Must be the March Hare. But probably a bunny rabbit. He’s been hopping around our backyard for months now and suddenly decided to check out the back porch. I was surprised to see him come so close and expected him to be long gone by the time I grabbed my camera. He must not have noticed me standing inside the door, taking his picture. If he did, he didn't care.

He sniffed around for several seconds, maybe looking for a leaf of lettuce or a carrot stick. Or Spring. Perhaps I should have offered him some tea.

He didn’t find anything of interest so he hopped across the deck and disappeared into the bushes. So cute. Highlight of my day, folks.

SOME BUNNY LOVES YOU

He was a little late for Easter. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a rabbit in the yard. Well, a live one anyway. We used to have a cat [Buddy] who made great sport of hunting, killing and eating these cute critters. Not birds. Just bunnies. There aren’t many cats around the neighborhood these days, so maybe the bunny population is making a comeback. It was fun watching him nibble on whatever he thought was yummy. His little nose was twitching a mile a minute. Major bunny cuteness. If he sticks around, maybe I’ll call him Bugs. Or Roger.

Neil spent the day building steps for his new shed. He’s a very handy man.

I cleaned our very dirty front porch. It was yellow with pollen. And I hung my ‘curtains’ [sheets, actually] ~ my Spring ritual. They provide much needed shade, especially after we had one of the maples cut down. Makes for some privacy and a cozy place to read.

Grandson Knox is here with us this evening while his mom is out for dinner with friends. This was part of his dinner ~ a yummy banana.
Happy Saturday, everyone!

The New Man Cave Has Arrived

They delivered it yesterday morning ~ Neil’s new shed/RC airplane hangar/woodworking shop [hopefully]/man cave/storage area [last and probably least since it will most likely be filled with airplane stuff]. He was forced to tear down his other man cave before it caved in on him. It’s rather large to say the least. He had to hold up a wire so the guy could move it into the back yard.

It was kind of fascinating to watch it being unloaded from the truck and onto its new home [where the old shed stood]. The guy used a remote control to work the hydraulics which slid it out over the spot and then slowly lowered it into place. Wish I’d taken a video. It was pretty cool.

Stands out in our back yard like the proverbial sore thumb right now. Once Neil gets it landscaped, we hope it won’t look so stark. Our other shed was green and blended into the yard. It’s several feet longer and wider than what he had. I’m glad he’ll be able to spread out and do his thing in a bigger and much safer environment. When he finally gets it all set up, I may never see him again. No kidding.  Here is the link to Old Hickory Buildings and Sheds if you're interested:  http://oldhickorybuildings.com/
Happy TGIF, y’all!

Our spring has come at last with the soft laughter of April suns and shadow of April showers. ~Byron Caldwell Smith

Raindrops on tulips in my back yard. We’ve experienced all sorts of weather today ~ rain, wind, clouds, sun, blue sky ~ and sometimes all at once. Must be spring in Tennessee.
