LOL Cindy, that is true.

Who started this silly tradition anyway? We're going to get at least 6 more weeks no matter that happens. More like 3 months of winter yet.

Some people don't know it, but a ground hog is another name for woodchuck.

It's a tradition to eat pork sausage on Ground Hog's Day. You want to know why? Because pork sausage is a ground hog.
