When I remarked that I thought the groundhog was crazy to come out of his warm burrow in February, a man wrote to say that the groun- dhog he talked to on his way to the barn that morning had seemed quite responsible. Since then, I've tried to show more respect for groun- dhogs and their weather forecasting ability. In closing, I'd like to share with you a poem written by Nell Reneau, called Wishing you Happiness.
