Schools are closed today, due to stormy weather. The rabbit patch is wet and puddles stand all about the territory.

This is old blog posting (March 21, 2013). I have almost 1,000 of them in my “Next Book” folder waiting for more of you to buy my first book. I am determined to not “reward” you with a second book until you have shown you fully appreciate the Fine-Crafted Foolishness in the first book.

I got a kick out of Charles Seabrook's late March "Atlanta Journal-Consitution" column where he described the first day of spring as New Year's Day for "wild creatures."

It rained the whole way to Elizabeth City, on Friday. By the time, I arrived the rain had "set in".

April has a reputation as a beautiful month, and so far she has been living up to it! Every day of spring break has been lovely.

That's the title of a Wall Street Journal article by Oliver Kamm. Horrors! For a dyed in the wool grammar geek and word nerd, this article was hard to take.

I always say when I am on any sort of break, that for now. . . I am a writer! I announce it on Fridays when I come in the back door of the rabbit patch and Christian laughs every time.

The diary of any gardener will have many chapters over a lifetime. They will span many topics and be full of accounts of good years and not so good years.

Is it a game, a book, a television show? I suspect many of you first thought of the children's game that parents encouraged during those long family car trips of old.

Evenings in the springtime are especially nice at the rabbit patch. There is a time just after supper and just before the first stars start shining that comes in softly and leaves in the same way.

I do love week end mornings at the rabbit patch. Though sometimes, I will sleep a few minutes later, often, I don't.

I have been "Honeybee" for two years now. Lyla had her second birthday on April fifth. She was born on Easter Sunday just as I was putting the turkey on a platter for Sunday dinner.

It looks like somebody lives at the rabbit patch today. Kyle and I worked yesterday, the better part of the day, restoring order to the territory.
