Jimmy says Early Spring!


Wisconsin's answer to Punxsutawney Phil, Jimmy the Groundhog in Sun Prairie, did not see his shadow this morning! According to Groundhog Lore, that means an early spring for Wisconsin. To be honest, Phil did see his shadow but Jimmy has a better record of accuracy... at least if you believe the locals. I choose to believe Jimmy (probably because I'm anxious for spring). Remember last year on this day? The U.S.A. had one to two feet of snow in the midwest and east and the worst blizzard of the winter along with billions of dollars of storm damage... with over 100 million of us affected. Now, isn't 2012 a lot better?
