Puxsutawney Phil's prediction ~ No shadow! Spring is near!!

That's good enough for me ... that's what I was waiting to hear this morning ... so it's all systems go!

We're packing up and heading into snow country... ha ha ... Dear Hubby says that's what he's got a big old truck for ... driving in the snow ~ and we're not going to let a little dusting like the midwest states got dumped on them in this last storm get in our way.   If it takes a couple extra days of travel time and we end up hunkered down in a hotel some where .. oh well .. so la be.

We're not strangers to driving in snow.  It's the other guy out there on the road that concerns us.  Hopefully, those people will stay off the roads and let us snowbirds go about our merry way. 

I probably won't be on my blog for a week or so ~ but will update when I can.  In the mean time ... SMILE :)  

Ground hog Phil predicts an early spring!!


Until next time...
So it goes in my neck of the woods.

  2. Why do I have the sneaking suspicion that he stayed in his burrow, snug in his jammies, and just phoned in the report!

  5. Oh please be safe! Indeed, those other drivers can cause all sorts of problems. Make sure you've got plenty of emergency supplies and warm blankets! God bless you in your travels.

    P.S. Just because you're gonna be traveling, I'm still going to keep you in the drawing for the goldfinch giveaway. I'll be happy to save him for you if you win! :)

  12. Here's wishing you a safe and fun trip! With your spirit you will do fine for you will take whatever lemons are handed to you and make lemon-aid. Be sure to keep a watchful eye when/if you get into Tennessee if there is any chance of sleet or snow. ☻
