You've heard of public restrooms... in these parts we have 'in public' restrooms. I am guessing the woman's restroom is on the left... its cleaner.

Just down the road a piece from where I live, is an extremely famous destination.....let me give you hint:

He is the seer of seer's, prognosticator of prognosticators....and the even is covered live by every major network news channel....

Welcome to Punxsutawney.....and Gobbler's Knob, the home of Punxsutawney Phil

The sign welcomes you....


In this field, there are often over 15K people...a few years back the record was set, at 30K...most ever, with NO incidents.


The Stage that is Set for Phil!


Closer to stage


The famous doors that are knocked upon to 'awaken' Phil, so he may make his year appearance and forecast!


A little history...



So, next year, on February 2nd, tune in to CNN, and see what all the hub-bub's about....the Weather Channel usually carries the event too...

I've been working on my boat the last few days...I keep it at Sooke Fisherman's Wharf, which is about 20 minutes away from home.







My boat is the second one out on the right hand float.
