Today is Groundhog Day and despite Phil’s prognostications in Gobbler’s Knob, I find myself hoping for more winter.
I’ve never been a big fan of the cold, but it’s the beginning of February and crazy warm here. Rain is the order of the week. Winterlude, Ottawa’s big celebration of winter, starts today and the Rideau Canal is closed to skaters for safety reasons, and I’m wondering if all the ice sculptures are going to melt.
And so I find myself wishing for more snow and celebrating the winter we have left.
Sorry, Phil!
