At dawn,

Punxsutawney Phil

ventured out of his burrow

on Gobbler's Hill and

saw his shadow.

Buckeye Chuck

also saw his shadow in Marion Ohio;

there we have it, on good authority--

a predicted six more weeks

of glorious winter.

All the more time and supplies provided by

Mother Nature

to make our loves a way good Valentine!
