Flat calm again last night frost on the fly when I came out of the tent. I had to dig out long underwear in the night, wore my sock hat all morning ever while doing sun salutation yoga to get warmed up, I love coffee. As I was eating breakfast a snowshoe hair came into camp. Hopped right down the trail from the box and stopped in the middle of camp not 8 feet from me. BIG rabbit maybe twice the size of an Iowa cottontail. Grey fur with white tuffs on it's ears and big white paws. He turned away from me and hopped toward the tent, stopped looked back and kind of gave me a shoulder head nod, like follow me, come on, this way. He then hopped under the tent fly and headed to the tent door then out and away from camp. Sooo I guess I was supposed to go down the rabbit hole today.
