Yesterday, we drove to Woodstock in a snow storm and arrived just a little too late for Woodstock Willie's groundhog forecast. He did not see his shadow (we would have been very surprised had he seen it) so that means an early spring. The other hog out in Punxsutawney had seen his even though friend Denny G. who was there said it was overcast.
We then had snow all the way to Rockford, along with lots of slush and spray compliments of the many trucks on the road.
Drove out to Dubuque,Iowa, on the Mississippi River and went to the lock and dam where we saw six bald eagles. Continued south on US-52 to Bellevue where we saw three more. There were none in Clinton, Iowa, where we spent the night.
Heading to the Quad Cities today.

Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
