Very conventional and logical to the corps.

Yes, he is a bit of a hog, that rascally critter! My husband bought the groundhog musical toy from “Groundhog Day,” which kept our grandkids amused for all their toddler years :)

Myself, I bought the alarm clock from the film.... 5:59 a.m.... 6:00 a.m. The heavens open up. It's February 2, and guess what? ~ Had your Phil of this yet?! lol.

Thanks, Debra. Hope you'll come to my surprise party for Bill Murray. We're gonna wake him up at 6:00 a.m. special for it! ~ Cheers, Gershon

He draws a lot of attention to the town. I suppose it is what it is! I wonder if it's the same groundhog every year? Deb's grandfather hated them. Shot every one he could. Loved to groundhog hunt!
