Check out my latest action film – The Fast and Furious Bunny. I play an undercover cop drifting through the Lake Tahoe woods in hopes of busting an underground ring of kayak hijackers.

Nature Bunny. Round 2.
I went hiking again today with my Mimi. We did a new hike… it’s just below where we hiked last time. But this time, we went allllll the way down to the bottom of Emerald Bay, and back up again! My little bunny feet were real tired this time. Check out the things I saw!
The Emerald Bay hike takes us down to the shoreline, as well as Vikingsholm - a 38 room Scandinavian mansion at the bottom of the bay.
It was really windy at the top. Way out there in the middle of the bay is Fannette Island - the only island in Lake Tahoe.
After a short, but very steep hike down, we made it to the bottom... do you see the island out there? It can only be reached by boat or swimming, neither of which I wanted to do.
Also at the end of the hike, I found the bottom of Eagle Falls. These come down all the way from Eagle Lake.
Vikingsholm was so... random?
38 rooms?! The lady who built this house must have been crazy... and maybe a little rich. I don't get how this house could have been so easily accesible back when she built it in 1929.
All done. My bunny butt better be nice and firm now from all that work back up. Bye bye Emerald Bay.
Nature Bunny.
Today, I went on a hike with Mimi. We went above Emerald Bay on the West Shore to Eagle Falls and on up to Eagle Lake. I survived!
Eagle Falls on the way up.
Halfway to Eagle Lake, I could see Emerald Bay!
I fell. Once.
I made a friend. SQUIRREL!
I made it! Taking some time to reflect on my jaunt.
You can call me Bear Grylls if you'd like... do you think that's his real name? Maybe I can change mine to Bunny Grylls.
Eagls Falls on the way down. It was a great hike and a good day.
The Beard… wasn’t so feared.
Tonight, I was a lucky bunny. I went to see the Giants play the Mets at AT&T park with my Mimi. I dressed up as my favorite player, #38 – The Beard. Mimi strapped me to a big sign that she held up during the game. I felt like a bearded bunny badass.
My first time at AT&T!
I saw this sweet Willie Mays tribute statue.
We had great seats.
Here I am on my sign that Mimi holds up!
Let's go Giants let's go!
See the Coke bottle and Mitt? They were HUGE! Too big for Bunny.
I made a friend named Adam. He was nice enough to hold me up real high on my sign so Wilson could see me!
I had been waiting all night for this - do you see the resemblance?
Wilson didn't do too well, so Bochy took him out... I gave him some pointers after the game. I still had lots of fun even though the Giants didn't win.
Prepare to Fear.
I finished making my sign for the game tomorrow… I hope Krukow and Kuiper can see my bunny-self! Check back here on Saturday for photos from my adventures at the game!
Blues Bunny 2011.
Today, I went to the first Tuesday Bluesday concert with the Maita Fam. This free concert is held at Squaw Valley every Tuesday in July and August with tons of super cool blues artists. This is the band I saw play: http://www.johnnemethblues.com/.
The welcome banner... do you think they did this just for me?!
I was greeted with a Corona. Beer for Bunny!
The drummer invited me backstage!
All Aboard!
After a day in the city, I took the train back up to the cabin. What a ride!
Here I am at the Amtrak Station in Emeryville, which is just outside of Oakland. I took a bus from the city over to the station.
Here comes my train – the Zephyr #6. It goes all the way from the Bay Area to Chicago and back again.
I picked a good seat.
After the train started down the track, I roamed the different cars. There was a coach car, dining car, sleeper car, and the lounge car - where I am in this photo. The whole car was for sight seeing.
The train went by the Sacramento River down in the valley. I had really great views the whole way to Tahoe.
It was beautiful.
Right before we got to into the Tahoe area, I saw Donner Lake. There were so many different boats cruising around.
When I got off the train in Truckee, my Kiki was there to pick me up!
A Cozy Night In.
After a long and gloomy day at the lake, a cozy night in was just what I needed. Mimi, Kiki, Sarah, and I cuddled up for sangrias, baseball, and a friendly game of Scrabble.
The evening started off with a game of Scrabble. I spelled the word "Zarf", for 48 points! (it's a metal cup to hold coffee? - thanks, Scrabble Dictionary).
Om nom nom... homemade sangria.
I sipped my sangria couch-side during the Giants game.
Mimi made a cobb salad for dinner... unfortunately, no carrots.
Do you think my bunny butt is as nice as Zito's? Oh, and Giants win, 6 to 3.
I REALLY Love Lucy.
Today was the final regional class. Lucy was good. Mimi was good. They were good together… bringin’ home the roses!
Mimi and Lucy heading to the warmup arena before their class.
Waiting for Mimi and Lucy to enter the show ring.
Here they are!
I'm watching the ringmaster put the roses on Lucy.
Number One.
Lucy was such a good girl after her class, Mimi let me give her a carrot.
I think Lucy got tired of me pretty quick... must have invaded her personal horse bubble or something.
But in the end, she gave me a big kiss before she got on the trailer to head back to AZ.
This is the man who hauls her alllll the way back home. His name is Mike. He promised to take good care of Lucy.
I Love Lucy.
I met Mimi’s horse, Lucy for the first time today. When we arrived in Santa Barbara, we went straight to the Earl Warren Show Grounds. Mimi had a lesson on Lucy, and then Mimi/Kiki and I went on an adventure around the town.
HI!
We said hello. It was either this... or sniffing her butt.
Before Mimi got on for her lesson, she let me hop on! SO HIGH UP!
This one was more my size.
After Mimi's lesson, we headed out to State Street in Downtown Santa Barbara. I made a friend - his name was ALSO Bunny!
Santa Barbara Marina.
While walking around the docks, we saw the fishermen pulling in their catch - Sea Urchins! Some guy picked one up, cracked it open, and slurped all the goop out. YEHCK!
We walked along the beach near the marina... I failed to see the warning.
