We jumped into the construction of the bunny house today and got it pretty well underway. Tomorrow we will either continue or we will go to the Kingston Lowe’s to pick up the windows. The windows we’ve chosen are 36” x 55”, so we’ve decided to install only two of them in the building. There will be a rear door to the outside and a door from inside the barn, so we do not have to go in and out in the winter. That will help preserve the heat in the building for the bunnies. Below you will see a multitude of pictures, showing lumber piles, progress on the hospice gift shop, the rear deck roof project and just pictures in general of the animals and grounds.
