Bunny Tracker night
The tracker below runs on Saturday night, March 27 — built for the family TV, with big status, the garden watch, and a countdown to the Bunny reaching our house.

What's being served

To start

Mains

That's the confirmed part so far — the rest of the menu fills in as Easter gets closer.

Forecast — early outlook

Early outlook (not the real forecast yet): late March in Norwalk is early Iowa spring — it could be jacket weather or the first warm weekend of the year, and egg hunts plan for both. This block switches to the real daily forecast once Easter is inside the 10-day forecast range, and the forecast shown that day stays on this page when it's archived.

Bunny Tracker

For the TV on Saturday night. Try the demo run any time — it runs the whole route in about two and a half minutes. On Saturday, March 27, switch to live mode: the Bunny sets out from the east at 5:00 PM Central, makes landfall at Bangor at 6:00 PM, and reaches our house at 11:00 PM (that arrival time is adjustable — Kyle sets the real one). The tracker starts on our own hand-drawn map; when a run starts it switches to a real Google map (satellite view included), and if that map can't load it quietly stays on the drawing.

Bunny facts

One bunny, one basket, 45 stops. He hides first and asks questions later — and he has never once been caught on a doorbell camera.

🥕 The Basket List — Norwalk

Garden watch confirms two names in very good standing at 345 Cormorant Dr:

Vera Hoskinson — basket list, third year running.
Vivian Hoskinson — basket list, first Easter, already a lock.

Mom and Dad are listed as "pretty good, considering." The Bunny has noted the carrot situation approvingly.

Garden watch: Garden watch warming up…

The tracker is a bonus on this page — it starts from a map drawn right into the page itself, so even if the live map can't load, the show goes on.

Photos from the day

Photos from Easter Sunday land here after the day — then this page is finished and rolls into Past Gatherings as its own permanent page.

Until then

Before Easter, it's Mandy's birthday in January — and right now it's Halloween 2026. The full year is on the family calendar.
