Good morning everyboomie.
IT's GROUNDHOG DAY!! So who thinks Punxsutawney Phil will see his shadow today?
Personally I don't think he will. It's too warm down here.
Today I didn't do a lot. My legs were too sore.
Groundhog day we're dipping back down into the 40s with overcast skies, and some rain.
There you have it. Spring is around the corner.
Mark my words.....or as Phil Connors would say;
“Didn't we do this yesterday?”Have a happy GHD everybody.
