Last year we had an invasion and potato leaves were destroyed while the plants were relatively young. So baby potatoes only. And we pulled them out using pitchforks, etc. This one must have been catapulted and then buried in the soil again for a season. It was half a giraffe away from its original bed.

how many giraffe's wide is your garden plot?
I'd say about twenty half-giraffes*.
*It's a custom measure recently used by a British astronomer to describe a meteorite that hit Earth hours after being discovered. Just repeating the news I heard from other social media people.
There's a Bridge, across a river, near me. I live near where MIT is. The famous University.
Well, as a prank. decades ago, they invented a unit of measurement, called the Smoot:
they measured the bridge length, by taking one of their classmates and laying him down, over and over, to see how many Smoots (his name) long the bridge is. now, it is an MIT standard.
Awesome to know that, too :)
