In October we took a drive to Punxsutawney, PA. "Groundhog Day" is one of my favorite movies and I wanted to see where it was filmed. We found out it wasn't actually filmed here; it was filmed in Illinois. Too bad, because this town is really very quaint. The day we visited, we had Gobbler's Knob all to ourselves. According to the news , there were over 40,000 people there this morning to see Punxsutawney Phil predict 6 more weeks of winter. I'm not real happy about that!
I can't imagine 40,000 people descending on this little town.
This is where Punxsutawney Phil actually lives...the picture is not very good since it's taken through a window in the town library. Phil did not want to pose for a picture.
There are statues of Phil all around the town. Someone told us there were 50 some. We didn't bother to find all of them, but here is one. (the statue is the one in the middle)!
