Merry Groundhog Day, or as Wiccans call it, Imbolc. Phil says “Six More Weeks of Winter.” It seems Phil’s a poet too.

Prophetic rodent aside, I was walking around Princeton Borough before eight in the morning a week ago and gardeners where taking out the winter cabbage and putting in bulbs. I love winter, but not without the anticipation of spring. Zoë picked up a stick of the ground the other day, even it was budding. Has anybody seen signs of spring yet?

Less then two months until Ostara, er Spring Equinox. Stupid Wiccans.
