Pat Mellema Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 Barry I had a call this afternoon from my doughter asking me if the ground hog saw his shadow this morning. She was taking my grandchildern to school and was asked by my granddoughter if the ground hog saw his shadow this morning so she called me knowing I have the radio on all morning to ask the question. Did the ground hog see his shadow? . I asked what differance it made out in Hawaii as that is where they are stationed. She said it makes a differance in the amount of rain they see out there. They say spring is right around the corner or they will have 6 more weeks of rain. I felt bad telling my doughter that I had about 3' of snow around my boatand didn't think it would melt for another 2 months where I could get the boat out.

Barry Pyeatt Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 Pat, It's the pits here, 81 degrees wind out of the East at 10-20, high surf warnings. Same tomorrow and Wed. Possibility of more clouds on Thurs and Fri. and maybe only 80 degrees. But we put up with it. We're heading for Molikai to see some friends and maybe get in some sailing. Should be back this weekend to see more of the same. 8) My daughter said it is in the 40's and raining with lots of snow in the mountains back home. Some flooding but the spring flowers are starting to pop up already in her yard. But I can remember all to well spending days trying to get home to Detroit from the UP in the winter. And being stuck in Grand Rapids with ice all over the place for several days one time. That was in late Feb I think. Good time to be making fenders and seat cushions etc. by the fireplace. :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdrown Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 From www.groundhog.org - the official site of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club: 2004 Saw Shadow. Phil said he is thankful for the comfort of his burrow, which is more tidy than Saddam Hussein's "spider hole. 6 more weeks of Winter! More Skiing! Less sailing : ( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 You are right Pat. What diffrence does it make? The Grand doesn't breakup till May any way!!! My in-laws over in Muskegon report thay haven't been out of the house in a week. Too old to keep up with the snow and the plow plug at the end of the drive.
