Indiana January Bunny Romp

OK so I'm working in Hoopeston, IL. right and I get out pretty early(just after day break)and I'm out till dark every night. Since these last two snow falls I've noticed there are bunny tracks every where!
I work in alleys mostly and along the highways.
I'm seeing tracks and lots of them except I have yet to see a rabbit? Now where I'm from if there are rabbits around you will see them early in the morning and late evening. So what gives? Are Illinois bunnys nocturnal?

Granted I'm not out tromping the brush but you would think you would see some around with all the tracks I'm seeing every where. None dead on the hwy,and never seen one cross the hwy either. Last couple of mornings & nights I've really been watching for them too, even went back to some areas that looked like a freeway with tracks...no bunnys.
:confused:

Something else I can offer.   If someone has never ran a trap line they can tag along with me.   I have a few traps set in the area.    I trap for racoon, coyote, muskrat.   But sometimes catch squirrels, rabbits skunks and so forth.    It might be interesting for someone that has never experienced it.

a gift?? All right...I'll go shell-less....

I've had snow in Houston(yes,Texas); I've had snow in Aurora,IL ... can I get some snow in Edinburgh..??

Does the cabin have any tables in it ?
I was thinking (dangerous)...crockpots and what not in a general- grab and growl line. Might leave more room inside for the li..ehum, story tellin's.

I don't know what is in the cabin but Nighhawk might. I've been wanting to go down and check it out but I've been pretty busy.

Also while we're on the subject of the cabin, I only have $50.00 towards the cabin. If anyone else knows they are wanting to sleep there and want to sent something in advance you can send it to me at: Bona Glass
            1979 S. 900 E.
            Marion, IN 46953

We need $140.00 more. Someone has given $20.00 to cover themselves and a child or two. Someone else sent $20.00 for himself. So there is no set rule, more like a donation. I've thrown a $10.00 in the pot even though I'm not planning to sleep there. I'll be using it to get warm, eat, li...tell stories.

So if you want to be sure of a spot in the cabin to sleep send me a few bucks and I'll put your name down.

I am not sure if I am going to make this one or not now. Got forced into taking 2 weeks vacation starting this Monday from work so if I do make it, it will only be for a day trip.

[Billy]

adeeden - a day trip will be good.
This is more about gettin' to meet some of the faces of the 'Gang; than anything else.
Rabbits will be a plus!! Bow building will be another. Chili or beans ..well, we'll see..
Hangin' out and sharing smiles and laffs is the bottom line.
Whether two hours or a day and a half...
