Sometimes Bunny it is good to wake up and smell the coffee.

Nap time 2 am

"Sometimes Bunny gets very frightened when we are sleeping away from home."

"I understand Boar.  Sometimes I get nervous too."

"It took me a while to get used to having a home you know.  I am a flaneur."

"Ah, that makes sense."

"Let's both keep him safe between us.  He really is a little Bunny and needs his sleep."

"I agree."

"Thanks for understanding Pika."

"Anytime Boar.  I'm glad you two came on the 24 hour write-in with me this year."

"Me too Pika."

Smile

(R to L Pika, Bunny, Boar, Plotinus, Writing Octopus)

"Smile Boar, it's a group photo."

"Writing Octopus, why are you knitting?"

"Because I have 8 arms to hold you Boar."

"Wouldn't that be 5 if you're knitting and writing?"

"Ah yes, only 4 arms left to hold you because you can't see the coffee mug behind me."

"Do you need help?"

"No thank you Bunny, I'm good."

Why?

"Why do people hurt each other on purpose Boar?"
"I will never understand that Bunny."

"So all people do is sit and write?"

"And laugh Bunny.  They also laugh."

"Mine too.  Thank you for inviting us Pikachu."

"I agree Bunny."

"That is important Boar."

Welcome

Welcome.

This is Boar and Bunny.  They are traveling companions and dear friends.

Boar is from Tuscany, Bunny is from the Boston area.  Recently, I learned the word "Flâneur" from Mo Willems in his description of a character in his new book "Diva and Flea."  Boar is a flâneur, Bunny is very shy and timid.

Last summer, Boar decided to help Bunny be less timid by taking him on an adventure to New York that included riding in a car, on a ferry and finally on an Amtrak train home.  Since then, they have gone to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, to the Eric Carle Museum in Amherst and to a number of sites locally (including meeting a lobster at the Wegman's in Chestnut Hill).

After many people asking, "Why don't Boar and Bunny have their own blog?" they decided that maybe they needed one.  Please enjoy your visits and their little tales.  Don't be shy to share them with your friends.
