North vs South

VS



I know I'm long over due on this subject of Groundhog Day but I have good reason for it. February 2, was Groundhog Day and to me it means nothing. I don't take it if Punxsutawney Phil sees his shadow that means 6 more weeks of winter. Why? Because I live in the South.


Northerners have Punxsutawney Phil the Groundhog that determines if there will be 6 more weeks of winter or not. I have to say, if I was yanked out of my bed one morning and thrown onto my front porch with a bunch of flashing cameras, I would go back inside and shut the door just as Phil did this year.


Southerners have a true sign that winter is on it's way out and Spring is just peeking around the corner; the Robins. These brightly red breasted birds have made their way here.

True, the Robins might be here because of the blizzards happening up North but never the less; they're here down South!
