It's not just Groundhog's day...
It's February 2, 2022.
It's 2/2/22.
2222!
But there will be another day coming in just 20 days...

It's 2/2/22.
Or 2022-02-02 in the superior ISO 8601 format. :D
US Route 22 is where my dad stays and we have NC 222 here which is not too far from where I am!
2222 is the store number of the Walmart in my town.
That's all I have to contribute to this one.
I have a photo of FM 2222 in Austin, TX from the I-35 frontage road:

Two, two....give me two. That's good.

Such a shame that US 222 (or PA 222, for that matter) doesn't quite make it to US 22 anymore...
Planned for this day in advance:

I set an alarm for 2:22 in the morning today. Of course, I could have done it in the afternoon, but then it would be 14:22.

Thank you!
I got home from the gym and had six minutes to come up with what I posted for the AARoads Facebook page at 2:22 (https://www.facebook.com/aaroads/posts/10160058570382948) :awesomeface:
and Happy Birthday Scott!
The Jeopardy champion won $22,200 today.
The 22nd is the more important of these if only for the fact that it will be on a Twosday.
Here's one for Scott (Happy Birthday!) :D

Haha, yeah, that's definitely been a lifelong thing for me. I have a few childhood memories of waking up in the morning on my birthday and opening presents while the news was on TV, discussing what the groundhog did.
Thanks for the well wishes, everyone!

And also that they haven't built I-222 in Birmingham (nor I-422, save for a small piece in the northeastern corner) either.

Not just any Twosday. It's a Taco Twosday! 🌮
After 2/22/22, we won't have another same-number date until March 3, 2033 (3/3/33).

I saw a quote somewhere (Facebook maybe) that suggested that first grade teachers have their students create a "time capsule" on 2/2/2022 or 2/22/2022, and ask them to save it and open it on 3/3/2033, when they would be in the 12th grade.

Albeit two days late, by chance I just passed by this mile marker on GMSV (I-75 in GA), so I posted it to commemorate the occasion.
The long awaited sequel to 2/2/22 has just arrived in my timezone- Twosday, 2/22/22.
Yeah!! Happy Twosday everybody! :popcorn:

I've actually been planning that since I took those photos around New Years.
Or M-22 now?

One problem, I did M-22 a long ago:

Was going to try to take a picture but I passed out real quick.

It's official here in Colorado!
And I missed 22:22:22 (CET) on 22/2/22. That would have been the ultimate screenshot.

There's US 22 pretty close to where I live, except this is the first year where I won't be home on 2/22 to drive it. Sort of sucks to not get the roadgeek celebration in.
Sorry for the VERY late response, schoolwork has been a top priority recently.
Happy BIRTHDAY @Scott5114! 🥳🥳 :cheers:
Haha, thanks!
