Report on the Country

The humans went back to the country today. Work is progressing well, and the bunnies are hopeful that they will be able to put me to work on the renovations soon. If I don't get captured and drug up there come Monday, there is much chatter about putting me to work, cleaning off the bamboo stalks from the pandas' flooring party. But that isn't the worst news. For some insane reason, the humans have been allowing Betsy Bear to visit the country with them, and she trotted back today with the happy news that the human who lives one cottage down, and who is constructing an airplane has left for some sort of show. So, his plane is unguarded, and Betsy has plans to snatch it. I can just see it now. She will amuse herself dive bombing the happy picnickers and campers, and snatching their picnic baskets and goodies with a grappling hook! Maybe I ought to offer to handle the bamboo cleaning, before the bunnies can go searching for my leash to drag me to the country. Sure, it will be a pain, making sure the stalks are totally clean, but it's better than possible jail time as an accessory to Betsy's planned crimes!

The Country on Friday?

I'm afraid I heard comments on a possible trip to the country this Friday. I wonder if two days' warning is enough for me to find a place to hide and thus dodge this? Even though their thoughts are kind of focused on fairs and blue ribbons, I'm sure the bunnies would manage to slip away for a bit to try gathering stuff for seeding purposes and next year's garden. I'm surprised poor Farmer Turley hasn't given up farming already with my rabbit siblings hopping to visit him whenever they can. And I shudder to think what might happen if that nutty neighbor up there has his airplane completed. Betsy will snitch it for sure!

Betsy Bear News

Oh, this is a disaster. You will never believe what I heard from the rabbits. One of the neighbors up at the lake is working on building a plane, and the shed in which this airplane construction is taking place is right next to the country cottage. Needless to say, Betsy was very interested in this news, and visions of flying, and making air raids on picnickers and other bears are dancing in her head. I'm likely going to be drug to the country cottage soon. Perhaps I ought to bring a nice lock along as a gift for our neighbor? It might at least slow down that bear a bit.
