I haven't heard the official word but it's sunny here in Pennsylvania so I'm sure he did...\n\nYes, it's official!  He did!

Yeah, it's 6:15 a.m. and the first thought on my mind was - "I can answer more questions!" and jumped out of bed. Addict by nature, I guess. The deer are out feeding in the hay. The sky is a true definition of the color gray. Actually, I'm waiting for the ice to go melt so I can go fishing. I stepped out on the lake yesterday and it was like a small earthquake. Happens everytime I go out on the water. It's the fish, trembling in fear of me. Ha ha. Good morning and have a great day.

I wish it was Groundhog Day 3 years ago when my Dad was still here. He passed away recently... that moment was priceless and I would like to relive it again with my dad.\nOverall having said that, I wouldn't change anything as what's in the past help get me where I am today.\nWhat I can do now is live for a better today, tomorrow and beyond.

I just got back from there and I didn't see it, but I'll look next time I go.  \n\nI think Orcs and Trolls practice shaminism.

The tradition of Groundhog Day originated in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania on February 2, 1887. In the U.S. the tradition derives from a Scottish couplet:\n\n    If Candlemas Day is bright and clear,\n    there'll be two winters in the year.

Apparently. Did anyone else think he looked like a deer caught in the headlights?\nFor those who comment about scaring the kids...speaking as a mother, there are ways to calmly, and quietly, excuse oneself.

I'm not sure.  I'm usually around in the daytime.  Personally, I've been out reading & voting & giving thumb's up.  Maybe it'll pick up soon.\n\nI'm saving up my questions & still figuring out what all I want to ask.  You should see the notebook I'm carrying around though, it's getting pretty beat up.\n\nGood evening to you.  ☺

Groundhog Day occurs in Canada and the US on February 2nd. From Wikipedia: "Tradition states that one must observe a groundhog's burrow on this day. If the groundhog emerges and fails to see its shadow because the weather is cloudy, winter will soon end; however, if the groundhog sees its shadow because the weather is bright and clear, it will be frightened and run back into its hole, and the winter will continue for six more weeks."

I can say that they should be heading your way soon.  It finally got cold here today and will stay that way.  Lakes and ponds are staring to freeze over.  I saw some geese and a couple large flocks of mallards moving south this evening.  Good hunting.

My uncle was building a beach house on the Oregon Coast and I decided to drive up to see it with him so he could show me his progress.\n\nWe got there really late at night because of traffic, me, my uncle and his dog.  As soon as we got there his dog, Bailey, started acting really strangely.  She seemed very agitated and she started growling and the hair on her back was up.  At first we thought someone had broken in the property, but when we went inside it was completely empty.  The dog followed us into the house.\nMy uncle checked the house to make sure it was all locked up and no one had entered it which would explain the dog's strange behavior.  The house was nearly done, but it was empty of all furniture...so we turned on the lights and he started showing me around the place.\n\nWhen we got to the dining room, the dog (which was with us the whole time) began whimpering and growling all at the same time. \nHave you ever seen those cartoons where the dog is standing with a paw in the air, the tail stick straight, ready to go hunting?\nThat's sort of Bailey looked like.  She stood very stiff, looking at an empty wall in the dining room, the hair on her back was up but her eyes were moving, following something that neither I nor my uncle could see.  \nWhatever she was seeing seemeed to be going around the room, like in a acircle and she just followed it with its eyes, growling the whole time until "it" (whatever it was got really close to my uncle.  Than Bailey pounced on it...except to us it was thin air.  She literally jumped through the air and crashed against the wall.  She got up sort of dazed and looked around but whatever it was she had felt or "seen" was gone.  \n\nIt was the weidest and freakiest experience I have ever experienced.  Even though I din't see anything...\n\nThe dog was just acting so weird...like there really was something in there with us.  Whatever it was, she didn't like it.

Yes. I saw one. broad daylight.  above fiber industries in Greenvile S.C. blue Sky's. I looked over. darn .nothing was holding it up.It was right above these pipes and things on the right side of the mile long building.hovering a few hundred feet above the pipes. large silver saucer shaped craft..just hovering there. I could have shot it if I had  had my rifle. it was that close. I pulled my car over and sat there and watched it for a while then when on.later in the Greenville news there was an article about a trucker who said a silver saucer followed him down high way 85 to Spartanburg and back to Greenville. a few years later I was telling some people at work about my seeing that saucer and this man said his brother had told him he had seen one over fiber industries about the same time I had seen it.sure do wonder what they are and what there doing here.Personally i don't like it that they fly around and don't introduce themselves. maybe they have to the government but they don't wont to tell us.I have researched them a good bit. There s no doubt there here. the question is what are they up to.I got a Bad feeling about them when I saw that one.

Oh My Dear Aunt Lizzie! I have got to tell you we need to shelve this thing with this damn woodchuck!  The woodchuck is extinct, we killed all the chucking chuckers! The official government notification was sent out to all of the world last week!\nDid you not get an e-mail about this? The rest of the whole entire world knows that there are no more woodchucks except you?\n\nWe will give this subject the proper investigation it is due when we all get together and elect the committee to investigate what happened to Frosty the Snowman! Death by natural causes due to global warming or could it be something else, perhaps homeland security had a hand in this disappearance. there have been reports of trace DNA found in the drinking water of the North Pole. \nYes indeed let us let the poor woodchucks rest in chucking peace for now. We have more important matters to discuss at this time. Such as how many peppers did perter really pick? A government cover up, perhaps the CIA and the FBI and the 4H, and the Girl Scouts, and the Boys Wonders are involved in some global plan to bring down all the pepper pickers putting pickled peppers partway past people's pathways.\nThis subject is closed until such time as new information can be gathered!

I see the exact same thing. I thought something was really wrong. It looks like tv snow in the dark. When you find out, please let me know...

I did too. Watched it out the kitchen window while drinking my cup 'o joe. It was very pretty. The moon was full too as I took the dog for her walk this morning...very pretty out today. \nI have an empty field too - it's on the west side though - I would miss the sunset....hopefully I don't get a Wallyworld or skyscraper either! :)
