Let The Celebration Begin!

 

I JUST LOVE BLOGGING on holidays and today is no exception.

Today is Groundhog Day 2015!! Let the hoopla begin!!

Having grown up in Western Pennsylvania I was taught, early on, that Groundhog Day was a Big Deal. It was right up there with July 4^th, Labor Day, and the day that the new car models were unveiled by Detroit. Groundhog Day had implications for the rhythm of daily life, with just a spoonful of local mysticism thrown in. And the town of Punxsutawney was a combination of Stonehenge and Jerusalem – the nexus of everything Groundhoggish.
