GroundHog Day!

Yep, this is Punxsutawney, PA (www.15767.com), home of the weather-forecasting ground rat, also known as a marmot or groundhog.

I was covering the event for a couple publications so Beth and I dropped by town square to talk with some of the visitors.

In just a few minutes I had talked with a young couple (red head-wife, husband, and baby in stroller) who had just driven from South Carolina, another couple from So. Jersey, and a pair of blond ladies from Florida.

There was also a family which flew in from Australia just to see Phil.
