Groundhogs

Yes, he saw his shadow, it seems like he always does.
Here’s the thing, though. If he sees his shadow, it only means six more weeks of winter. Perhaps in Pennsylvania, where Punxutawny Phil, the official groundhog of groundhog day, lives; six more weeks of winter might mean a late spring. But here in Michigan, six more weeks of winter would mean an early spring. We can all live with six more weeks of winter, we know we have at least that much. If Phil can promise me spring in mid March, I’m a happy camper! (Figure of speech, I don’t camp. Not in spring, not in summer, not in fall, and certainly not in the winter of my discount tent.)

Perhaps the tent. If you got it at discount??

Exactly, Only six more weeks. Just think, Christmas was almost 6 weeks ago. I would never be a happy camper, either.
