Bunny Run

My friend Lisa and I decided at 8:30 on Sunday morning to make a bunny run to New York to pick up our our new does.  Man are we able to mobilize quickly. By noon I was in Akron meeting her for the ride to NY.  Our rabbits came from Derry, New Hampshire via New York in a series of exchanges among fellow rabbit friends.  They were suppose to end up in Ohio this past Saturday but due to a slight miscommunication they did not make their destination so we went to get them. In August when I saw their photo on FB I fell in love but figured there was no way I would be able to get one to Ohio. Thanks to Lisa, who arranged the whole caper we each got a Chestnut doe.  It was an enjoyable albeit wet drive to Mayville, New York, almost exactly 4 hours from my doorstep.  After retrieving the girls from Kim, who graciously agreed to oversee their journey and care from NH, we drove route 5 along the lake shore to ogle the fall colors and the lake and ended up at Dobbins Landing in Erie, Pennsylvania eating a delicious seafood dinner at Smugglers Cove right on the lake. My 11:30 pm arrival at home made this the latest outing I have been on in years. We had a blast. My throat was sore from laughing and talking so much. LOL
