Impending Rain

The rabbits are not happy, due to the current lack of rain. They had been distracted with planting, you see, and forgot to do their rain dancing as much as they normally do. Now, they're worried the lack of rain is keeping seeds from sprouting. I don't see this as a problem, but the bunnies most certainly do. They have invited every rabbit in the area to come over this weekend for a giant rain dance to correct the issue. I would suggest all humans start work on your arks now. Given those rabbits' track record, I am very afraid you will need them.

Afternoon Planting

As if their current crop of sprouts wasn't bad enough, the bunnies poked out twelve more things this afternoon. They planted Green Zebra tomatoes, brandywine tomatoes, Mr. Stripey tomatoes, Cherokee purple tomatoes, giant paws full of sweet peppers, Hamilton market peppers, paprika peppers, cantaloupe, two different types of cucumbers, Hungarian hot wax peppers, and butternut squash. I wonder if I should offer to help our neighbors pack, so they can flee before it is too late?

Today's Planting

The rabbits poked out all of the stuff they got from the seed bank this afternoon, and dug up more ground to do it, too. On the up side, though, they decided to make their plant labels from plastic silverware, so they didn't need to force me into assisting them with label assembling. Of course, it did mean that I didn't get to eat popsicles, but at least I didn't have to write out frightening quantities of things with alarming plant names. About the only good seed they put out of the entire seed bank batch was the bushel gourd.

Planting

Did I mention that while the bunnies were poking things out this afternoon, they were doing this planting during the midst of a tornado warning? Honestly, all I kept hearing from them was how the wind was messing up their ears terribly as they hopped around poking plants into place.
