Interesting to me that such attention is paid to something so inaccurate. But then, a baseball lifetime batting average of .350 would get you into the Hall of Fame. 2 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Treepep 1,061 #6 Posted February 2 Usually start plants in the little greenhouse mid January and plant taters mid February. All cold season is in the ground and not happy. (started new a few weeks ago) glad I didn't plant greenhouse warm season. That would have been a disaster. I don't have that many mini sweatshirts 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SylvanLakeWH 30,601 #7 Posted February 2 PETA has renewed their annual appeal to replace Pete with a hologram... This is a trail cam picture of the flag a large army of groundhogs was seen carrying on their march to protect Pete this morning just outside of Punxsutawney... They object to PETA (People Eating Tasty Animals) unfairly discriminating against them... apparently they are demanding that PETA become PEAA - People Eating All Animals... who knew they weren't tasty?

squonk 45,552 #14 Posted February 2 They shine 5 million jigawatts of light on him Feb 2nd. Of course he sees his shadow. How can he be wrong and predict an early spring? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beap52 2,011 #17 Posted February 3 (edited) If that rodent was in my back yard last night he would have seen his shadow. I just happen to wake up about 11:30 and looked outside and amazed at how bright the night was. Full moon, snow and the camera actually made it brighter than just my eyes only. These new fangled telephone cameras amaze me. Probably would have been even better if I was not photographing through the window screen.
