Ground Hog's Day

Ground Hog's Day always perplexed me.  As a child, I could never figure out if it was better for the Ground Hog to see his shadow or not see his shadow.

It's all about perspective.  I grew up in Minnesota, so when this precious rodent poked his head out of his safe warm bed to check out the sunshine and make his prediction, I couldn't wait!  If he saw his shadow, I was thrilled.  "ONLY" six more weeks of winter!  Yea!  The idea of a Minnesota winter lasting less than six weeks, from the beginning of February, was really out of the realm of possibility.

Here's to an early spring, Cheers.
