Bullfrog, Groundhog…

...Home, Shadow?

According to Chloe it’s going to be a short winter (well at least near Pittsburgh, PA) because the “bullfrog didn’t go home” yesterday. I told her maybe it was a groundhog not seeing his shadow!

Groundhog Day is an annual holiday celebrated on February 2 in the United States and Canada on which folklore tells if a groundhog emerges from its burrow and fails to see its shadow because the weather is cloudy, winter will soon end. If on the other hand, it is sunny and the groundhog sees its shadow, the groundhog will supposedly retreat into its burrow, and winter will continue for six more weeks.
