Moon, Groundhogs, and the Fight Against Gravity

Hello My Friends,
Well it's cold... again. We got hit with a smidgen of snow, and I hear more is coming. Whoop. *she says sarcastically* Well at least we got a warm fire and a roof over our heads, Thank You Lord! *Looks at Pencil and snorts* It has the words BE SHARP on it... LOL. Yes I'm being very random, I think it's my messed up sleep schedule.

Moon's Triple Fold Show
So Wednesday was the "Super Blue Blood Moon". I happened to still be up that and even though it wasn't a full eclipse for me I had to see it, cause who knows if I'll be around the next time this happens, I mean God willing, but you never know. It was cold as heck with snow still around, and the fact the sun had yet to rise, but I took in this beautiful event despite these facts. Luckily it's setting point on Wednesday above the most western mountains so it didn't set before the partial eclipse started.
The sky was in it's usual light blues and pinks of pre dawn, a few stars were hanging on to the sky.The moon looked like it had a yellow tone to it. Soon it began to be over shadowed, at one point it looked as though the tree branches was trying to keep it aloft. Then after it was partially darkened it just faded away. I never see the moon fade mid eclipse like that, it was amazing. I was a mecicle by the time I got back in, but it was worth it.

Sadly due to a deleting screw up I only have one of the pictures, granted they weren't the best pics, but still ERRRRR... But here's my only crappy pic of the "Super Blue Blood Moon" for you guys.



Why Phil Why!
Well the 2nd was groundhog day. I woke up early and found my Mom watching Groundhog Day. Then on The Weather Channel we watched the famous Phil's prediction, 6 more weeks of weather. *Cue Dramatic NOOOOOO!* I picked up our cat Mousey and asked what his prediction was, probably put me down or I predict much pain in your future. I feel like I should know this, but does anyone know how this whole groundhog thing got started?

Once upon a time we had a groundhog that's den was on the hill above the second curb after you turn on the road. My grandpa noticed the critter first I think, afterwards it was either him, my sister, or me who dubbed it Groundhog Curb. Sadly I don't think there's any there anymore.

Fun fact in old day I don't know if this is just in area they use to refer to groundhogs as Whistle Pigs.

Losing the Fight With Gravity ...Again

Well I faced off with my old frenemy gravity once more... and lost... again. I was putting wood on the porch and caught my foot on a piece of wood and crashed. The left index finger and knee got skinned up. But all is well I got bandaged up, and finished getting wood, I even had time to chat with a passing deer... What? *cue that hippy guy from Animaniacs* It's called communing with nature man!
I hope you all have a good rest of the weekend my friends. Take time to enough nature! God Bless You!
