I’m so excited for Groundhog Day!“, Elliot says as he tells me all about the special day tomorrow. He drew this picture in Kindergarten. It’s a groundhog underground. Next to him is a bed. above his head you can see a hole in the ground. I am not sure what the writing says.

Elliot is still very much into the Jersey Devil. We watch videos about him, read books, discuss camping in the Pine Barrens at night — bringing my father’s giant flashlight, Bowie knife, and switchblades to protect ourselves. He wants to go there with my friend Eric, like we did last summer (although we did not camp there).
