At some point this morning Brownie must have chased a bunny to the "exit" into the Back 40, because he sat there, on alert, for a LONG time, obviously wishing/hoping for it to reappear.

The stuff his dreams are made of....

It's a little less crowded in the Back 40 "parking lot" these days.  Last week Alex sold his van, and recently his friend's boat moved to its summer berth at the lake.
