Scampering around

This morning before the rain started I was out and about scampering up trees, over tree roots , and just having fun.
Tree roots.
An old fallen tree.
The woodpeckers favorite tree.
It wasn’t long before a cold breeze started blowing .
Raindrops starting coming down.
I raced across the yard then up on the deck.
I looked back to where I had just been.
Let the wind blow.
Let the rain fall
I guess I’ll go in and take a nap.
I’m glad I was able to scamper about this morning.
An inch of snow is predicted tonight.

ACorn explores outside

We have had so much rain lately.
I put on my boots then went outside on the one day the rain held off.
Everywhere I went it was standing water and mud.

I found violets blooming.
I found lots of violets blooming all over the yard.
A little Bee was enjoying the dandelion.
I call these little flowers snowdrops.
I don’t think that’s the real name .
Looking across the yard full of blooming violets many snowdrops were mixed in.
The lambs ears are growing .
That is one tall crane compared to little me.
Lots of flowers here.
I did have to be careful to not get snagged on all the thorns growing on this bush.
It would be awful if my sweater got hooked and I couldn’t get down.
This is the last and best looking plant growing in the yard.
I didn’t get close just in case it was poisonous to me.
I had fun exploring even with the standing water and mud.
Summer with dry weather will surely arrive sometime.

Stay At Home Knitting

At this time everyone is staying home.
My person has many small balls of leftover lace weight yarn.
She has been using them to knit little people.
She purchased the patterns on Ravelry the designer is Esther Braithwaite.
Here she is knitting a rabbit.
I can’t wait to see it when she is finished.
This is the first little person she knit.
Now the little person has a brother .
Oh my!
Another one .
Everytime I turn around another little person is added to the group.
A little nurse is knit complete with her mask.
A bowl full of little people.
But wait there is one more.
The little rabbit is done.
She still has lots of bits and bobs of yarn left.
I think more little people will be made.

ACorns Easter 2020

HAPPY EASTER everyone!
My human had an egg hunt for me today.
There were so many eggs I couldn’t carry them all.
I also received a big chocolate rabbit.
Maybe I’ll nibble on his ears later.
Little peeps came out to see what was going on.
They are so cute.
The peeps wanted to know why I was carrying colored eggs in my basket.
I thought this was a fine day to wheel out the big chicken I received last Easter.
