ground hog day

so every year on this day people look to a little furry animal to find out if spring will soon arrive. a ground hog has everyone's attention. however, if ya think about it, we're in kansas, and it's febraury, that means spring isn't coming soon. it doesn't matter what the ground hog sees or doesn't see, the weather will never be predictable here. but i'm glad we have a ground hog to tell us, aren't you?
