Back at the rabbitpatch, all was well. The boxer did his "homecoming dance" and Christopher Robin "sang for his supper" as he always does, the minute I arrive.

A cold rain has been falling for days. One night, there was a slight chance of snow and you know I had my heart set on it-but nary a flake fell at the rabbitpatch.

For now the woodlands are tinged with shades of gold and crimson ... and the sprawling fields are warm shades of russet and ginger.

I arrived at the rabbitpatch, last night. I had been away a full week and so Christian and the boxer made quite a production over my return.

I have been in Elizabeth City, a good while this summer.

It was raining Sunday morning, when we woke. I knew snow was a long shot, but I had hoped for it anyway.

I drove home, from Elizabeth City, a bit later in the day, than I usually do, on Sunday.

On Friday, the wind changed and suddenly, the climate was remarkably warmer.

The Rabbitpatch was quiet on Christmas morning. Christian had to work an early shift, Will and Jenny were home with the children, of course . . well everybody was somewhere else.

Every river I crossed was just a little more blue than the sky. The detour was still active, and this made the trip a bit longer, but still I managed to get there before twilight.

I returned to the rabbitpatch on Sunday evening. Brant rode back with me and it was a nice change to have company . . . especially his.

Is there a happier time in your life, than when a baby is born? Oh how good it is to write, that Jenny and little Brynn are home and all is well.

The "early service", was especially beautiful. The territory was washed in silver and I felt privy to something very special.

Somehow, the week passed until it, at last it is Saturday. During the summer, one day is much like another. They feel the same, with the exception of a Sunday -Sunday always feels like Sunday.

It was late in the evening when I drove up to the rabbit patch, yesterday. The sun looked like a tangerine as it sunk behind the trees, blackened by its' light.

Rain continues to fall and there is "water, water everywhere". The streets are flooded on the corner by Jennys' house, so much that folks now resort to driving down the quiet lane, where the lilies grow.

On Saturday, I woke to the sound of a friendly rain. I love to wake on a silver morning with a gentle rain falling, especially, if I have no further obligation, than to listen to the watery song.

Every month comes bearing their own unique gifts to the season. I thought of that, this morning, at the "early service", for I found myself having a sense of dread, to open the back door.

The "early service" on Tuesday morning was a peaceful affair. A very slight breeze brought the faint smells of summer, with it.

There is a rabbit family that lives in the "Quiet Garden". This morning three of the bunnies attended the "early service".

The grass is greener at the "rabbit patch" these days. Part of it may be due to the drenching rains in May.

A lot has happened in the last few days-so much that I was still in Elizabeth City, on Wednesday.

It seems "time really does fly, when you are having fun". It is a mystery to me how an entire week has already passed, in what seems like three days.

I attended the early service, today, - the last Saturday in January. The morning was cold and still, but a mockingbird sang, anyway.
