Blame it on Punxsatawney Phil

The famous groundhog made his appearance in Pennsylvania this morning -- on eagerly awaited Groundhog Day -- only to see his shadow.

You know what that means -- don’t put away your warm clothing just yet. Legend says we’re in for six more weeks of winter.

Don’t despair. Plop into your comfy chair, start a glowing fire and enjoy your favorites from MidPointe Library, of course!

Stop by any MidPointe location and peruse our wide array of reading, audio, video and game material. Or stay inside your warm abode and download a favorite from one of our electronic platforms.

For your consideration : a book on weather prediction (groundhog-free method), a bio of Punxsutawney Phil, a “Groundhog Day” DVD or “Groundhog Day-the Musical” on CD.
