My son and I went to this charming event two years ago. We got up very early and bundled up. It was snowing, and we were surprised to see hundreds of people gathered in the town square. When the time came the groundhog came out and it was very exciting! We walked down the block and had a breakfast at a neighborhood eatery which was a marvelous buffet. We are looking forward to this event again this year!
