Our Groundhog Day Star...
Mr. Prozac

Groundhog Day  2006 in Oxford, Michigan  was once again celebrated in memory of Noah John, Oxford’s beloved one-eyed weather prognosticating groundhog. Noah passed away on April 22, 2002 as a result of injuries sustained in a traffic accident in 1998. Before Noah John died, he met several times with his llama friend Mr. Prozac and instructed Zac in the art of weather prognosticating.

Zac was confident of his abilities as he stepped up into Oxford’s Centennial Park gazebo this year. When asked, he informed his handler Mark Harries, that  he DID NOT see his shadow and that in memory of Noah, he is predicting an early spring! Zac and his friend Spittin Image, remained on hand for a while after the ceremony to meet ceremony attendees.

It was a fun day filled with entertainment and memories of Noah John.
