And happily I can report that we DID have a bit of rain last week. A very very small bit, more like a heavy mist, but still, it was a bit, and we are glad for every drop. Gilly is pointing out some of the drops on the picnic bench at the dog park:
So, for those of you enduring a bitterly cold winter, I hope the groundhog will predict an early spring ...and for those of us having an unseasonably warm, dry winter, I hope the groundhog will persuade a few clouds full of lovely wet raindrops to come our way. That's all for now...
NEWS FLASH! The above post was published at 8:49 last night...this morning we awoke to the sound of what???...could it be?...yes I think it is! The sound of rain! A little more serious than last week's...we'll see. Thank you, Powers that Be. Here's eyewitness part of the report:
Oh, my Suzanna..your groundhogs are perfect. Love them. And Gilly is oh, so cute.
ReplyDeleteHi Penny, thank you! We don't, to my knowledge, have groundhogs out here, so I've never seen one with my own eyes. We have gopher like critters and ground squirrels
DeleteBlogger didn't want to let me finish my thought! Which was that Gilly has a way or sitting on her haunches with her paws up and I think she looks a bit groundhogish!
DeleteHappy Groundhog Day to your, Suzanna! Here -- bright and sunny and cold all day which means...yep; he saw his shadow and went scurrying back into his den for 6 more weeks of winter!!
ReplyDeleteHi Margaret...it feels pretty cold here but I know it's a LOT colder up where you are and six more weeks must seem like a really long time...
DeleteI love your embroidery, Suzanna. Happy rains to you and I hope you continue rain-making. xo
ReplyDeleteHi Peggy, thank you! It is raining as I speak, or write...people are so happy to see the rain...lots of smiles and cheerful greetings! Gilly just came in soaking wet...
