Early Spring or More Winter....

Well according to the furry little Mr. Punxsutawney Phil, we should be welcoming an EARLY SPRING!  Here is the forecast from Punxsutawney early this morning....

Phil's official forecast as read February 2nd, 2011, at sunrise at Gobbler's Knob in Punxsutawney, PA:

Here Ye, Hear Ye, Hear Ye

Groundhog Day, February 2, 2011
Punxsutawney Phil was raised from his burrow
By the call of President Bill Deeley.
He greeted his handlers, Ben Hughes and John Griffiths.

After casting an inquisitive eye towards thousands of his faithful followers,
He proclaimed that the Steelers are going to the Super Bowl!

Back to the business at hand...
He surveyed his surroundings carefully and found that there was no shadow around,
So, an early spring it will be.

So how much of this craziness do you really believe?  Do you really think that a weather forecast can be predicted by a 'groundhog'???  As much as I would love to believe it, according to statistics that I read early this morning, Mr. Phil is only right 39% of the time.  Well Mr. Groundhog, let's hope that you are right this year... as for me and my gang we are ready for SPRING!!!!!

Even though this is all superstition; we all have to have a little fun sometimes, RIGHT?  Happy Groundhog Day from our house to yours!!!

Till next time, stay warm!
