Catch that Rabbit

Rabbit, originally uploaded by hollykoffler.

Here someone has captured a wonderful photo of a rabbit in the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens.

I, myself, tried unsuccessfully to catch a picture of this faster than lightening bunny rabbit in my yard just yesterday. I have never seen an animal move as fast as him.

My daughter, Savannah Rose, got excited thinking we could catch it for a pet and even dumped a box out of her brother's closet to leave out for the rabbit to "hop right in." There was no hope of catching him nor did I want to try. He should be free to munch off my tall grass and the neighbors where ever he pleases.

I just wanted to capture his cuteness in a photograph. Maybe he will decide to visit my yard again soon and I will get a second chance. If not this Alice will just have to keep her eyes wide open for the white rabbit to come along with his pocket watch and then follow him off to Wonderland.

Enjoy the nature around you be it tame or wild. Everyday is a gift to cherish.

Card Making Art

I like this creation someone made and posted on flickr.com. I need to settle down more and experiment with making cards. There are still tons of people I know that don't use a computer to communicate. Also, there are some of the same that I don't talk to on the phone much as they are out and about and busy and don't believe in cell phones.

Getting something special in the mail is also fun! So I think I am convincing myself to get busy here . . . a card to Linda . . . a card to Charles and Judi . . . a card to my special friend "Mama Mary".. this list is growing as I type.

Hope you take time to send a special note out to those you love and hold dear. Don't let more time slip away and wish you had . . . I have been experienceing that since last October when a dear sweet friend of mine (and penpal for years) passed away unexpectedly . . . I think of and miss you almost daily Sara Jo.
