YAY PHIL!!!

Kudos to Punxsutawney Phil for not seeing his shadow today, and predicting an early spring. The Green Free Library has an assortment of books on Ground Hog's day, weather and predicting it, and the infamous DVD-Ground Hog's Day. And since spring is going to come early, why not get a start on planning a vegetable or flower garden? How does your garden grow?
