Keeping an eye on the peepers

Pictured is the latest Peeper Watcher, Joey Bussard, the step-grandson of the late John London, who was the original Big Run Peeper Watcher. Joey is checking for the sound of the peepers in the swamp behind Big Run Carpet. For an update on the status of the Big Run peepers, known to sing only when it's officially spring, check out a copy of Wednesday's print edition.
