Y'all got nothing on us.  We had a day like that when the sun was shining bright and it did not rain all day.

I think it was a couple of weeks after Christmas.

That day was so nice I took my wife for a drive up the river with the sun shining on the snow covered mountains all around. Even stopped at a convenience store on the Rez for some fried chicken.   It has rained every day since Christmas otherwise, though on some of them it did not rain all day.  For variety we get freezing rain or some slush coming down.  None of that deep cold for us, nor sunburn, no sirree.

Nasty, I gotta remember that line about having been places I've never been.  That is a great one!  :highclap: :nofgr: Reminds me of my river boat friend when I got back from Cambodia and I asked him if he'd ever been there on one of those big rivers. 

John, the BBQ makes me salivate.

Young ones ain't that bad but the older ones are like eating old shoe leather.  I'm sure ya know that they are not rabbits but are hares. So I used a lot of the European recipes when I cook them - which I don't anymore.  I like your reference to obama rabbits and have used it a few times - thank you.

Obama rabbit is a good turn of words!

Ditto re young jack rabbits tasting good but not the old ones.  Growing up in the sage of Eastern WA State we used to hunt rabbits once in awhile and preferred young jacks about the size of a grown cottontail as just right to eat.  They were tender and had the slightest sage flavor to them, very good eating.  The old ones tasted like a sage bush and were about as tough.  We liked the young jacks better than cottontails, which were better than the average jack.  Have eaten snowshoe hares and they always seemed bland.  I haven't shot one in years.   When they snowshoe hares start turning white on years when the snow is late,  they sure stand out.
