It has been far too long since I updated this. Life with toddlers, a dog and a big garden seems to leave little time for much else. I am grateful and glad that my life is so full.
We have live traps. Two of them. Thanks to my friends Brian and Cheryl, the bunnies are going to be part of the 3915 Hasenfeffer Relocation Program. Every year that we have lived here bunnies have overrun our perimeter. Our faithful feline, however, made it clear that they were not welcome in the garden unless they were throwing themselves on his altar. Unfortunately, Casper's nine lives ran out this spring and our golden retriever hasn't figured out how to intimidate the cuddly little varmits. I have planted 4 rows of green beans - 3 times! I have a sparse crop of pathetic bean bushes and on Jul 2nd no hope of a harvest any time soon. Armed with live traps, some of Brian's expertise and the eventual addition of chicken wire, however, those little guys are going to find a nice country life for themselves starting tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed. My beans are in need of some relief!
(BTW... what is up with rabbits that eat green beans but not my gourmet salad garden... really?!)
