Groundhog Day. Spring.
Groundhog Day, 2nd February
A bit like the famous Pennsylvanian groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil, who came out of his burrow, saw his shadow, and went back to bed for another six weeks, our neighbour opened his garage sale on a sunny morn, and has withdrawn from public view since, keeping his garage door firmly shut. Similarly to the groundhog, we expect a return from hibernation soon, and his irregular garage sales of old novels, maps, prints (it's a Picasso madam; he painted it last week), oddments of furniture lining the narrow road, and dusty and 'what is it' things to to continue.
In my shopping bag from my last 'burrow' visit is 'Raise High the Roof Beam Carpenters - Seymour an introduction' by J.D. Salinger; 'Blessings in Disguise', a memoir by Alec Guinness; and 'Bouncers' the fun, and rumbustious artwork of Beryl Cook.
