First day of February! Woozers, the year is 1/12 over. How about a contest to warm up our February and to distract us from snow and ice storms?
.
PM me your responses to the five questions below about our unimportant holiday to celebrate the prognostication of an oversized rodent and win a prize. The first one with all correct answers wins.something for your quilting pleasure. (No, I am not going to send you more 2.5's.or anything about groundhogs.)

1. Which ancient Christian winter celebration morphed into Ground Hog Day?
2. What animal long ago was used to predict the end of winter in Germany?
3. When was the first time Groundhog Day was celebrated in the United States.
4. When was the movie Groundhog Day released? Who were the “stars” beyond the that over sized rodent?
5. Name two other cities in the US that have an office weather predicting Groundhog Day and celebration.

Bonus: Provide one strange fact about groundhogs or the celebration of Groundhog Day.

Have fun searching for Groundhog day trivia!
