Nestled in the heart of Altadena, California, the Bunny Museum stood as a whimsical sanctuary dedicated to the celebration of all things rabbit. A beloved institution, it wasn’t just a museum; it was a home, a labor of love, and a testament to the boundless joy that collecting and cherishing can bring. Tragically, this haven was reduced to ashes in the recent LA wildfires — specifically the Eaton Canyon Fire, which wiped out much of Altadena — leaving behind only memories of its unparalleled charm and the countless smiles it inspired. I was lucky to have visited this wonderful collection with my sister on Christmas Eve day while in California for the holidays. I can’t believe it’s gone.

Honoring & Remembering Our Service Men and Women on Memorial Day

USO Logo Patch

My father was a veteran of two wars, having served in the Marine Corp in both World War II and Korea. Despite the fact that I do not support acts of war, his and others’ selfless service to our country has inspired me to support the efforts of the USO for many years now. On this Memorial Day, please remember the men and women who sacrifice so much to serve in our military by making a tax-deductible donation to USO Dot Org – which will help support our troops, lift their spirits and honor their service – at this link. Thank you.
