Boathouse Bunnies

I hope it works out that you can go to France, dreamgal. What a great experience!

There will be other times for bunny get-togethers, not to worry.

Chin Up, Elf_Mommy,

In our travels, we might call you one day and ask to take you to lunch.

:dude:

Don't say I didn't warn you!

That goes ditto for us, too, ElfMommy. We are kind of in linefor inheriting a part of a house in Sarasota,FL, as yet sightunseen. We were planning to take a look at it sometime in thewinter.Is Jacksonville much off the beaten track toSarasota? Even at that, we've been known to travel miles justto experience a good restaurant in a new area to us.

BUMPING IN A TIME OF NEED! :shock:

What a sweetheart you are, Raspberry.

It does help to think about happier times together and it'd be wonderful if we could get people together.

I feel closer to this group than I do some members of my own family.

Oh, I so hope I can come! Between a trip to NewYork, my parents 25 wedding anniversary (and possible family trip), anda trip to India, it'll be hard squeezing it in :shock:, but I'mdefinately going to try. My parents think I'm crazy....

 

[Stephanie]

Wow, India! Now there is a country I've always wanted to visit.

I know I said I would be going to this get together, but now I'm not sosure I can make it. Between not having a Visa (making me unable toleave Canada until I do), and a lack of money for trips, I am prettysure we won't be able to go.

But, who knows between then and now, right? I also know that crossingthe border with bunnies is ok, so I'm not worried about that. Let'sjust keep our fingers crossed.

I'd love to be able to make it. It's a definatepossibility. I'm just trying to figure out how big of a bus I'm gonnaneed to get us and the buns there. I'm picturing a big white bus...withbig floppy ears and a big fluffy tail. Maybe 2 of 'em!!

Hey, Jim, welcome to the Forum. I'm a "white van man,"primarily to carry loads such as our bunnies when on protractedvacations, so one doesn't necessarily need a bus. Once tookall of our four, at that time, buns on a six week vacation toChattanooga, TN. We all enjoyed it.

Lord willing, we'll be at the Boathouse Party with all six of our buns!Built a two tiered "condo" cage from two large dog crates that'll fitin our van and will hold four rabbits comfortably. Other twowill go in two ea normally sized cages.

It is a silly thing in life, going to a Bunny Boathouse Party, but asTom Cruise once said in Risky Business, "Once in a while you'vegot to say, 'What the f...!"' Sometimes those little sillylifetime experiences prove to be vignettes you will remember for therest of your life. I treasure the experiences andpeoplewe met at the first Bunny Beach Party last year andothers I have met through Rabbits Only online and look forward tomeeting so many others who have become dear to me here on this boardover time.

Not too far from Fairlawn, trust me! We can make it from theJersey Shore in 3-3 1/2 hours and I poke along. You could doit in two, I'm sure!

BUCK! honestly I'm shocked at you, such a quote LOL

hopefully our house plansa work out this winter and maybe Ican consider being there. Don't think i'll have any idea about thattill prob April. But there are people for sure I'd love to see. But Ithink I would consider bringing my scrap book, because can't pick justone bun, and not sure if would be fair to drive a lil Brice that far,he really has not traveled since his tilt..... must go to work I shallbe late but had to read this post

 

[Bo B Bunny]

Sounds like fun! I would love to come but I'll have to see how things play out right now.

I take my son to Alabama every summer for Space Camp and my daughterand I just hang out there for 9 days. Hubby works long hoursduring the nice weather so we don't have a lot going on.

I wonder how Bo would do on a long trip like that?
