Did you ever read Watership Down?
My granddaughter Shanti (6) photographed the bunny in the yard next door.
I think of the book when I see rabbits in the wild.
“Watership Down is a classic 1972 adventure novel by Richard Adams about a group of wild rabbits fleeing their doomed warren to find a new home, facing predators, challenges, and building a new society on Watership Down in England”
How I got a garden of ferns
The previous neighbor had planted ferns. Along his side of the driveway. I’d never planted a single fern on my side Only a couple survived on his side . Just look at the lush ferns that blew over to me.
. But look at what blew over to my side!

ChalkFest on the Northside
My friend Tookie texted “Good morning, I just saw on the news that “Chalk Art ” is going on on the North Shore. Some of the art work was amazing. Maybe something for you and Shanti to explore on this beautiful day!!! to let me know that Riverlife Chalkfest was happening Sunday.
I drove down to the Northside with my granddaughter Shanti(6). Tookie was right. The art was amazing!

Safe?
TNT?
TNT primarily stands for trinitrotoluene, which is a well-known yellow, solid chemical compound primarily used as a high explosive.
“Each year, fireworks cause over 14,000 emergency room visits and 11 deaths in the U.S., with a sharp surge in injuries around the Fourth of July. Approximately 36% of injuries affect hands and fingers, 22% affect the head, face, and ears, and burns account for over a third of all incidents”
Pittsburgh Park Rangers at the Playground
The Pittsburgh Park Rangers were at the Highland Park Farmhouse Playground for a Pop-Up Thursday afternoon. No live animals but lots of different furry specimens of soft tanned pelts for the kids to touch and learn about animals in our local environment. There was a squirrel, a possum, a skunk, a beaver, a raccoon, a fox, a coyote. I think there was one more I didn’t get an ID. Edit: my granddaughter said it was a deer. The first one. I should have known by the white tail
My granddaughter said the coyote felt the softest to her.
