Groundhog Day

It is Groundhog Day!!! Here in Ontario Wiarton Willie is our prognosticator.  I don’t know what the weather is like in Wiarton but here it is dull grey and snowing.  So there is hope that Wille will say that spring is near! (Oh I just checked and yes…we will have an early spring! Phew!!)

If you’re in Ontario, Wiarton is a nice town on the shores of Georgian Bay on the traditional territory of the Saugeen Ojibway nation.  We have been there in the summer and they have a lovely downtown with nice shops.  You can visit the statue of Willie at the park then enjoy a nice lunch at the pub that is located there.  They served refreshing local craft beer and other types of “beverages”. 

I’m not sure how many groundhogs ago it was but Willie had been an albino which made him so special.
