Groundhog Day is upon us...but, unfortunately, the festivities on Gobblers Knob will be replaced by a virtual version tomorrow morning. As has been our world since this time last year.
I had the rare privilege to experience the 24 hours surrounding the event back in 2007...and, in an uncommonly long post (I believe my longest in 15 years), I chronicled my experience in Punxsutawney PA. Most of the links are long broken...but you'll get the essence of the moment.
This is what we miss when we failed to have a coherent national strategy to beat back a virus.
Sigh.
