Springtime is here, and it was time to mow the lawn for the first time in a long time. First on the agenda was to fill up the empty gas can, which cost me about $16 bucks – geeeeesh, back in the day it would cost less that five buck to fill that sucker up. After filling up the old mower and about 15 pulls of the cord on a hibernating lawn mower I was off and mowing on a beautiful North Texas late afternoon.
I finished in good time and made my way back to the shed I built last year to get some lawn tools and there to my astonishment was a decapitated little bunny. It must have run from the shed and I must have accidentally and unknowingly hit the poor little thing. All that was left was a small little bunny body. I really felt sad. I remember as a 16 year old kid driving home from a friend’s house back in the woods (that would be you, Tim) and making a little rabbit my first roadkill. It appears I’m no friend of the bunny.
I buried the little fella next to the shed. Rest in peace little buddy.
