Earth Hour 2011 March 26th 8:30pm

Bunnies

I have to give credit to our baby bunny finder, Ruby. She found a nest of bunnies in RI, stepped on a baby bunny at Popo's house and found this nest at our current house. They were a week or two old when she found them, and have since grown up and left the nest. We still see them bouncing around the yard from time to time.

I was nervous that she had scared the mother bunny away by disturbing the nest, so I started watching the nest. All day had pasted before I decided to look up more information on-line. ( I love google)

We found out that bunnies get fed once maybe twice a day. The mother only visits the nest in the early morning and late evening hours. This keeps predators from finding the nest. But leaves the babies on their own for the rest of the time.

After finding out when the mom was most likely to visit I put a video camera out the window and recorded the nest. What I got was the rare 5 minutes of feeding time. (She actually spent about 15 min in total, but I sped it up.)

Here is a link to a star wars video. I tried to get the video to play here but it wouldn't let me.

Enjoy.

My Ballerina

Stella

I always wondered what those marks were from.

I'd like to report more. But there is seriously nothing going on except work and more work. Maybe something interesting will happen in May.

Happy Spring to you all.

Stolen by Pirates

Ahhh there's the scurvy dog now.

Diver Wrestles Shark

for a Frisbee!

While tossing the Frisbee between boats a nurse shark jumped up between the boats caught the Frisbee and was swimming away with it. When the two guys grabbed their scuba gear and camera jumped into the water and wrestled it away from the shark.

OK not really. It is a much better story.

Speechless

lots of snow, trees down and powers out

If the powers out, how am I writing this? Borrowing some power and some heat from family.

We have enough snow to swamp Ruby,

get the Ford stuck

and make it impossible to leave the house (until today).

Happy Shoveling.

People of Pathmark

Hero sighting today on a grocery store trip. This year is definitely starting out with a bang. (I think he left his mask in produce.)

Twas the night before Christmas

And all through the house
Everyone was scurrying
Just like that mouse.

The floor has been vacuumed
The coffee table cleared
All to get ready for the coming new year.

We’ve been busy as bees,
As most of you know.
To the family gatherings
We’ve been a no show.

In our hearts you remain
Through nights and through days
We’ve been so busy in life
It has past in a haze.

Miles may separate us
And travel is tough
With good thoughts and hopes
And a little bit of luck


We will see you all soon
With good hopes and good cheers
For another exciting
And courageous New Year

Happy Holidays to you All

We seriously hope to see you all soon.

It's that Time of Year

Happy Holidays.

Dare Devil

I want to give thanks to the people who loaned us their condo. It's a great place. Thank you so much. There was a discussion about whether Ruby would be able to make it up or much more important down the spiral staircase. I have proof.

Ruby's new pillow

I swear I just found them this way. And no-one was sedated.

Time Keeps on Tickin Tickin Tickin into the Future

From "Fly Like an Eagle" by the Steve Miller Band.

You get my point, its September already.

"They say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself."

"Time is an illusion. Lunch time doubly so."

Douglas Adams

Sunflowers

Peppers - they are suppose to be yellow.

Watermelon - the sugarbaby size (perfect for the fridge)

And last but not least the Topsy Turvy Tomato.

Where did the summer go?

for the last 30 seconds

This is a video from the same person who did the fart song below. I happen to watch this catchy little tune and fell in love with the ending. So just make make sure you watch the last 30 seconds.

Gems of the Internet

For your enjoyment. For my pleasure.

This is David Choi. He has other entertaining videos and songs in case you get bored.

Gardening Ford Tough

Now I'm not one to use tools the proper way that they were intended. These Yew bushes were planted too close to the house and were causing the siding to collect mildew.

So I removed them.

Using the Car.

It was lots of fun.

So in there place I planted; peppers, lavender, basil, oregano and catnip.

Yummy.

And yes that is the Topsy Turvy Tomato Planter hanging in the corner, it seems to be working fine.

Fan tastic

OK i think i have an over fascination or love of ceiling fans. Being able to flip a switch and have cool air flowing is one of my favorite things. I really do love them. We had 3 in the other house and there were a few here when we moved in. There was however none in the living room.

So figuring that I was going to gut the first floor (at some point in the future) i thought well i'll poke a hole in the ceiling, put in a fan bracket and hang a ceiling fan to help with the summer heat. So i measured out the center of the room (there was no fixture hanging in the living room) and started to make the hole to insert the fan bracket. And what did i find? A circuit box, complete with energized wires. (not the best thing to have in an enclosed ceiling)



So my little brain thought, now what? My answer? Put it off. I have decided to wait to deal with that mess until we gut the first floor. I measured over to find a new hole for the ceiling fan, installed the bracket and hung the fan. It is powered through an extension cord that is plugged into a wall outlet (for now anyway). We now have cool air in the living room. Have i mentioned that i love this thing? 60 inch blades, two light sources, three speeds (which reverse for winter time use) and an increased blade angle to push more air. It really is the small things in life that make me the happiest.
