Today is
Groundhog Day. It is the day when a rodent will no doubt predict the weather
better than most meteorologists. It was On This Day in 1887 that Punxsutawney
Phil first made his debut at Gobbler’s Knob in Punxsutawney , PA.
The more accurate
Octoraro Orphie has been around since 1908. He appears along the Octoraro Creek
in Colerain Township ,
Lancaster County , PA each year.
On
This Day is a prompt I started this month to further explore historical events.
