So . . . today is "groundhog day" because Punxsutawny Phil gets to predict the coming of Spring. I was thinking: how about if other animals got to predict Spring? How would Siberian Husky dogs go about doing that? Maybe these two rescued Huskies could tell us, or maybe they are simply praising God for letting them be rescued.
Maybe some are more ready for Spring than others. I think especially of our dear sisters and brothers in Kentucky, who would most certainly appreciate our prayers. This will probably be one winter they will always remember, though they might prefer to forget their suffering from the effects of the ice storm. Many of those people need to be rescued, too.
The people in Kentucky and environs might not have even noticed the groundhog's shadow. I think that works like this anyway: If he sees his shadow we have six more week of winter; and if he does not see his shadow we have another month and a half.
In peace,
