Happy Groundhog Day

It's cloudy and probably going to snow here today, but the correct groundhog, Phil,  doesn't come out to be observed here.  It also looks cloudy where my mom lives, much closer to the neighborhood of Punxsutawney.  I think Hedgehog Day could be almost as fun as Groundhog Day, or as any of the other fun events of February 2nd -- maybe the delivery of diptheria serum to Nome, Alaska in 1925 which inspired the Iditarod dogsled race.  I'll take 6 more weeks of winter since we haven't had enough snow this winter to stave off a high fire danger summer!
