Short is Good

Finally it is February. 

And while this is the shortest month of the year

it is certainly not short on history or action.

February is jam packed with auspicious birthdays:

baseball great Babe Ruth, poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow,

president Abraham Lincoln, astronaut John Glenn, Jr

and The Boy Scouts of America to name just a few.

It's library lover's month and chocolate lovers month.

February hosts Valentine's Day and President's Day 

and tomorrow is Ground-Hog Day.

 

I declare today as Dog Hog Day. 

I went outside and saw my shadow. 

That means I will hog a full side of the bed 

until the end of winter.
