Yesterday, we had best intentions of being out in the Square to see Woodstock Willie do his prognostication, but Mother Nature had other ideas.
We had at least two inches of snow on the ground when we got ready to leave and it was still coming down furiously. Had to get the old snow blower out first and then did a slip-sliding away drive to Woodstock, arriving about ten minutes too late for the ceremony.
We inquired from some folks walking away who happily reported that no shadow was seen, so, you know what that means. We especially had wanted to see Richard Stenzel do his deejay "OK, campers, rise and shine, and don't forget your booties, 'cause it's coooold out there today." He was there and was to reprise his moment of glory.
Saw one guy carrying a horn walking away wearing liederhosen and said this wasn't quite the weather for liederhosen. He replied, "Boy are you ever right!"
We did park by the square and watched the people milling around the gazebo which was featured in the movie.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
