Punxsutawney Phil yesterday saw his shadow; Six More Weeks of Winter!
February 2nd 2021
But how many more weeks of Covid Phil? Not answering that question!!!!!
February 2nd is also Candlemas when Christians would take their candles to Church to be blessed for use during the year and in remembrance of Jesus who was Light of the World. February 2nd also ends the Christmas & Epiphany season. Most of us take our Christmas decorations down by January 6th but some Christian countries leave their decorations up until February 2nd. We always have a real tree so if we left our decorations up until yesterday I think the tree would have been bald by now!!!!
So thank you Phil for your prediction but it was not surprising in the current situation that we would be having six more weeks of Winter!!!
Treacle will be here later with her Wednesday Wag, although at the moment she is in her basket by my desk fast asleep!!!!!!
We knew that Phil would see his shadow because our weather peeps have been predicting another storm for us this weekend! Bring on the snow – just not too much of it all at once 🙂
Your garden looks so pretty in the snow!
Funny how Phil saw his shadow during a snowstorm!! I think Phil’s people checked out the long-range forecast!! Our snow is almost gone after it being 50 degrees the last few days!
Happy Valentine’s Day to you and Treacle, Susie♥
