| Finally got some good ones today! 74 big uns! Some are getting old already!  ---------------------------- While I was out, I found this groundhog that thought he was hiding from me. He was about 15 feet up a tree!  | |

| We found 1/4 of a sack yesterday and a half sack full today. Some fresh some old.
And I've seen a grounhog climb a tree before as well. Once, when I was out squirrel hunting, about 25 years ago or better. | |

| Like to call those Ron Jeremy's!
I gathered up a pound or so last night before I headed to the truck. All freshly popped. Anxious to get back out and find more! They are so elusive, its almost addicting!

Yes, I have been addicted for a good 55 or 60 years. Not sure when I found my first one but something about it sure gets in your blood. Shannon, there are fresh ones and ones that you shouldn't even bother to bend over for right now. The year hasn't been good. I think it is very spotty. | |

| I think if we had some heat with that last rain it would have been great. | |
