    :D No Barb...my niece couldn't say "Annette" when she was learning to talk so she called me "Aunt Netty" and it kind of stuck. Now everyone calls me Netty. I think she started something...

    Yep I've watched Groundhog Day. Over and over and over again...
    I don't think our coast has anything like Phil or the squirrel- perhaps I should start a tradition. Yank a Geoduck up out of the sand and check for a shadow. Not nearly as cute though...

    :-D :-D :-D

    Anything works..

    How about a Teddy bear or something..? Start something..... My gosh they did get 30,000 people up there to view that groundhog.
    We been to the place lots of times, but not at the shadow time.. It is cute ..Layes out on a nice area.
    Groundhog everywhere.

    Dubois , Pennsylvania, about 50 mile from here.
