Well now that the pictures are over, time to get serious.
And this program keeps canceling what I type. I'm feeling discouraged now, and Grace wants to know why I'm not chatting.
I will summarize what my last attempt said, in the unlikely case that this information won't disappear.
I moved my steel traps from the water to leaning pole sets, in hope of catching a fisher, bobcat, gray fox, or pine marten. I used scraps from the slender young hare I caught last night to bait the sets. I hope to catch another slender young hare soon so that I can put them together in the crockpot and have some hasenpfeffer.
Mr. M said he would let me snare slender young hares on his farm, but that is several miles away and might be inconvenient.
Today Mr. B took me to his house to help train a hearing dog. Alvin (the dog) is getting the point, but he is really hyper. So I will be going to Mr. B's house for the next few weeks to help train Alvin.
I, clever little freak that I am, just thought of something. Since I will be going over to Mr. B's house on weekdays for a while, I could ask to snare slender young hares at his house. He walks his dogs on a long path through the woods, so maybe he could check my snares on weekends.
Toby, my cat disappeared over the weekend. Do you think he may have been taken by a fisher, a bobcat, or a slender young hare?
ReplyDeletePain that he was around the birds, I still miss him.

Ummm... Well, if you haven't seen Monty Python and the Holy Grail, you can't appreciate all that a slender young hare can do. However, my guess would be that a fisher may have taken him, or he may have roamed afar and got hit by a swiftly moving vehicle with a careless driver.
