Punxsutawney Phil's Not Doing Too Well Either...

Just checked the weather underground here in the prairie dog hole and found that Punxsutawney, PA is at 34 degrees with a freezing low of 31 expected tonight with snow showers. You know, Phil predicted an early spring too. Just to keep it all in perspective...

Mother Prairie Dog is pretty testy these days, burrowed down with 7 pups to watch and them all 4 weeks from weaning. Let me tell you, I've tried to make myself scarce. Added on a few rooms, just to give us a little more space. Thinkin' about building a new privy--two holer this time, what with the pups and all.

I popped up to the surface today just to catch some rays. 72 degrees and clear skies, not much winds. Such a relief after last week's cold snap. I'm telling you though, don't trust it. It's spring, sure enough, with the grass green and the wheat up to the cows' bellies, but this roller coaster has yet to coast into home. Remember: Don't put out your annuals until after May Day!
