Sweets and Eats

I went to dinner this evening with Grandma and Aunt Nancy. True to form, Grandma ordered a root beer float when the waitress took drink orders - and she was very happy with it as an appetizer, a side dish with her shrimp and fries, and even as a desert.....

right down to the very last sip!

After dropping them back home to the Farm, as I drove down the lane, a very obstinate bunny sat in the gravel. She wouldn't move for love nor money. So I got out out of the car and photographed her. When I tried getting more of a profile shot, she finally hopped off into the fields to join her friends.

Several bunnies were getting their greens.

This rabbit enjoyed the front meadow that had just been cut

while the bunny in the drive took refuge in a pathway that had not seen a mower in awhile.

For many years, Grandma and Grandpop trained beagle dogs for field trials, so having bunnies on the Farm was very important. Whenever you drove down the lane and walked into the house, one of the first questions Grandpop would have asked was "How many rabbits did you see?" He never saw a rabbit he didn't like, and he especially loved the chocolate variety that arrived at Easter time. Funny thing is, he didn't share them with the beagles he kenneled and trained. He also would have been very proud of Grandma's selection of dinner beverage - the two of them enjoyed going to Sweets and Eats to enjoy a rootbeer float.
