Les and his trumpet!

This is a sketch of my husband, Les playing his trumpet while at a concert.  I thought it might make an interesting abstract painting.

Poor Dusty!

Sad Dusty

Sad Dusty

Dusty had a little surgery recently.  Nothing too serious, but I’m sure Dusty might have a different opinion about the whole thing.

You see, Dusty was neutered!   Since Dusty belongs to Sage, my granddaughter, it was necessary for him to be sweet, and gentle.  When male rabbits are not neutered they can become aggressive, and nasty.  During mating,  males have been known to bite, and even tear  ears off the female.

Dusty is still sad, so sad that his ear has flopped over.  His people are worried about him, and even took him back to his doctor to make sure he was ok. Dusty is ok, he’s just a little unhappy about the whole traumatic experience.  He never wants to go through that again!

Since it’s so hot where Dusty and Bubbles live, they have a nice cool place in the  house to rest.  Late in the afternoon when it cools down, they both are taken outside to hop around and play  in their large beautiful yard.

 

Thank you for hip-pity hopping by to see how Dusty is, see you soon!

Thursdays Time Out for Art

How can we ever get over finding treasures on a walk?  I love nature, and the magic it holds for us.  This small cone caught my eye while on a walk with my son, and grandson.  It intrigued me when I spotted it, and my son noticed me looking at it.

He said to me, “Go on Mom pick it up, I know you want to!”
