We took Gussy, so he could get some fresh air, and he certainly got fresh air &#8211; and a lot of exercise!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/images\/gussy_and_george_in_the_yard.jpg\" alt=\"gussy and george in the yard\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s gussy relaxing by George (the piggie) in the yard. Such a sleepy bunny!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/images\/gussy_and_keith_in_the_woods.jpg\" alt=\"gussy and keith in the woods\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I let Gussy out of the cage for a bit (on his leash) to explore the back yard. He decided (being the fearless bunny that he is) to go beyond the yard and into the woods a bit. Gussy moves fast!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/images\/gussy_and_keith_explore_the_woods.jpg\" alt=\"gussy and keith explore the woods\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So he&#8217;s out in the woods with me, running this way and that, rubbing his chin on everything in sight (or smell). He certainly seemed to be enjoying himself!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/images\/gussy_digging.jpg\" alt=\"gussy digging\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the soft ground near the edge of the yard, Gussy decided that he wanted to dig a little trench. Such a silly bunny!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/images\/dirty_bunny.jpg\" alt=\"dirty bunny\" \/><\/p>\n<p>He did get a bit dirty, though. He wanted to lie in the trench he dug to cool off, I think. It was quite hot out that afternoon.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/images\/gussy_lying_in_her_hole.jpg\" alt=\"gussy lying in his hole\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Good work, bunny &#8211; you dug a hole to lie in!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/images\/keith_rescues_gussy.jpg\" alt=\"Keith rescues gussy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the end, I had to pick Gussy up to get him out of the woods. He was going too far back. It was HOT&#8230; and humid&#8230; and the mosquitoes were fierce!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/images\/keith_holding_gussy.jpg\" alt=\"Keith holding gussy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>What a cute bunny! He&#8217;s much better about being held now, which is a good thing for my forearms. (His claws are quite sharp. &#8220;He&#8217;s got <em>huge<\/em>, sharp&#8230; he can leap about&#8230; just look at the <em>bones<\/em>!&#8221; \/month python reference.)<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve got some videos, too, but those will have to wait &#8211; even without sound they can be quite large, and I need to compress them first. So instead, here&#8217;s some other, older pics of the bunny.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/images\/gussy_on_her_toy_table.jpg\" alt=\"gussy on his toy table\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Amanda bought him this toy table &#8211; a small table with lots of rope &amp; colorful wooden pieces hanging from it. He hopped up on it to eat some hay that I had left there for him.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/images\/gussy_in_the_office.jpg\" alt=\"gussy in the office\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The last time I brought Gussy down to the office, he made himself quite at home, as you can see here. Too bad I can&#8217;t bring him down more often (he likes to leave pellets in Tom&#8217;s office, and Tom doesn&#8217;t like that).<\/p>\n<p>So, that&#8217;s all the bunny pics I have for now. I&#8217;ve gotta sign off and go brush Gussy &#8211; he&#8217;s shedding at the moment &#8211; so, goodnight!<\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE:<\/strong> You can follow the adventures of Gus and Betsy now on their own blog, <a title=\"The Life and Times of Bunnies\" href=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/bunnyblog\/\">The Life and Times of Bunnies<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the weekend we went to my mom&#8217;s house.
