Guess who saw their shadow?...

Happy Groundhog's Day and Birthday to Me!

(tee hee)

I used to think it was neat to have my birthday on Groundhog's Day and I also used to think that groundhogs were cute until we had a pack of them living under our shed.

I called a trapper to get rid of them and he came with a trap and a cup of his own URINE! He claimed that male urine deterred groundhogs from sticking around...

I claim..."That's just wrong and gross!"

Shouldn't that be in the "You know you're a red-neck when..." category?

The groundhog got caught in the trap the next day. When it started to pour later on in the afternoon, I felt sorry for the old chap sitting there in the trap all scared and soaked, so I went out and put an umbrella over the cage...(crazy, I know!)

I'm such a sucker for an animal that's suffering...

The crazy red-neck trapper guy came back the next day to take the groundhog...Jake asked him where he was taking him and he said "to the groundhog circus"...(in the sky)

Here's hoping that the six more weeks of winter bring us a halfway decent snow storm!

woo hoo!
