	Hi Route 66 Travelers, I'm Montana the star of Henry's Rabbit Ranch! I'm glad you could join me today. My good friends Rich and Linda let me have my own page to play with. I hope to update my page every so often with news and fun things to do. You will never know what you'll find here so come on back every now and again to see what we've been up to at Henry's Rabbit Ranch.

I'd like you to meet some of my friends. You can visit with us at Henry's Rabbit Ranch. Most of my friends are shy until they get to know you. But I'm not shy. I'd love to do some tricks for you, that is if you bring me something to nibble on. I'm not hard to please.


Drop on in and visit with me. I just love all the attention. Remember now, if you come to visit bring me some carrots. I'll do some tricks for you if you do. I might even let you hold me.

	Here's my good friend Teddie when he was just four weeks old and he's already ready to get out and explore Route 66 in his Corvette. I just don't know about kids today! That was a few years ago though. It didn't take Teddie long to outgrow his wheels!

I think Rich did a great job on building his Route 66 replica gas station. It looks like the real thing doesn't it? That reminds me of a funny story. Henry's Rabbit Ranch Visitor's Center looks so much like a real old time gas station that it even fooled the pros; the State of Illinois! Last year the EPA came around here and wanted to know where the buried gas tanks were! They were going to check for any ground contamination, a real problem with some of the older gas stations. Rich had a heck of a time trying to convince these professional pollution monitors his structure never was a gas station, in fact it's less than ten years old! In all fairness to our government servants, my friend Rich did a pretty good job on simulating an old filling station.

THARE IT IS! There's another neat rabbit place on Route 66 besides Henry's Rabbit Ranch it's the Jackrabbit Trading Post in Arizona. The Jackrabbit has been serving Route 66 travelers since just after WW II. When Antonio, the owner of the Jackrabbit Trading Post, found out about my friends Rich and Linda he gave the Route 66 Caravan folks a little present to bring them. The caravan brought it to Illinois with them. Wouldn't you know it, a Jackrabbit Crossing sign! Thanks Antonio. Route 66 is certainly one big family isn't it?

The Rabbit and the Snake

I got a home movie from my friend the other day. He always was a curious one. See what he did when he found a snake passing through his backyard.
