Happy Yellow-bellied Marmot Day!




For the rest of you, it is Groundhog Day. But here, Bitterroot Bill is a yellow-bellied marmot. He lives at the Lee Metcalf Wildlife Refuge, just north of Stevensville. No word yet on whether he saw his shadow or not. Frankly, I hope we have 6 more weeks of winter because we definately don't have the snow pack to endure a long, hot, dry summer--excellent kindling for forest fires.

So, I never know what to expect when I come home for lunch (except, of course, a hungry munchkin). Today West is wearing Daddy's hat, and we even had some time to play. I am so lucky to be able to come for lunch everyday to hang out with my little Bean!
