Laughing All the Way

First, in case you haven't already, visit TanLucyPez and catch up on what she was up to on Monday.

I've posted in the past about our groundhog woes. We caught one earlier this year after leaving the "have a heart" trap for a week. In the past we've always caught them and then taken them to a large park that has a semi-wild section that borders the Conodoquinet Creek.

We found that another one had moved in under the shed out back. The shed seems to attract 'em just about every year, but this year they have proven difficult to catch. The first one we caught this year would actually spend long periods of time sitting right next to the trap, taunting us. Like that.

This one wouldn't go near the trap. Even when my DH would seem to block every hole around the shed and leave one open that would lead into the trap, that darn groundhog would avoid it somehow.

I just spotted it eating the seed mess that the birds leave under the birdfeeders. He's lookin' pretty fat. He's got a good thing going.

And if you'd like to get a good thing going, visit Gus, the Groundhog Spokeshog for the PA Lottery. He's on tv commercials that show fairly frequently around here. Scratch away!
