Spring Comes Early this Year

Spring Comes Early this Year, originally uploaded by dahlenw.

Punxsutawney Phil had good news for warmer weather-lovers on this Groundhog's Day. For just the 15th time since 1886, Phil did not see his shadow. According to legend, spring is just around the corner. "At Gobbler's Knob I see no shadow today. I predict early spring is on the way." (cheering) >> That's right... Punxsutawney Phil did *not* see his shadow today... so that means, according to folklore, spring is right around the corner. The last time Phil predicted an early spring was in 1999. He has seen his shadow 96 times since 1886.
