When we drove to Boston last month, we decided it would be fun, and only an hour or so out of the way, to drive through Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania! In that part of Pennsylvania, there are many radio stations that play polka music. It was awesome!! It reminded us so much of the Groundhog Day movie, so we played the music, and made the trip into town. We found that they are very much proud of their groundhog legacy, and show their adoration for that little brown guy all over the town.!
When we first arrived, we stopped at the huge welcome sign!
I loved the groundhog car wash! So cute!
They have statue groundhogs all over the town like this guy. Sort of like how Cincinnati has flying pigs. This was actually a Phil statue right outside his burrow where he lives the other 364 days of the year.
He's in there hiding!
Do you see him, he's in the bottom?
In the park where his burrow is, there are some cannons. Noah was being silly and I wanted to show you more of the statues in the background.
And a wooden groundhog.
We only stayed a little while. Saw Phil, drove around town, Joshua napped. But it was one of those spontaneous moments that I just love. It was a lot of fun. I'm glad we did it.
