Happy Groundhog day to everyone!!! As I was getting out of the shower at about 6:30 this morning, I started hearing some speaking over a PA system in the square below our apartment. Jeremy was still asleep so I opened the door to the balcony and started hearing the Mayor of Sun Prairie singing....what may he be singing at 6:30 in the morning? Oh, but the official Groundhog Carol...sung to the tune of Jingle Bells
He sleeps in the groundOn a farm outside of town
His little ears are roundAnd his coat is furry brown
The same time every yearFebruary second is the day
The same time every yearFebruary second is the day
That we find if Spring is nearOr Winter's here to stay...
Oh!Groundhog Day...Groundhog Day...Jimmy wakes today
To tell the folksAround the worldWhat his shadow has to say!
Hey!
Hey!
After the groundhog carol. We were met by the arrival of Jimmy the groundhog, who is the Official groundhog that determines whether or not winter will last another 6 weeks. While there have been some stories as to whether Jimmy is just a duplicate for the Pensylvania Groundhog. Congress has determined Jimmy to be the United States Official Spokeshog for Groundhog day!
So, for everyone out there wondering about how much longer we must endure this aweful cold winter, Jimmy has spoken! We have 6 weeks more!
