Spring is Coming

February 2 is known as "Groundhog Day". The groundhog comes out of hibernation. If he sees his shadow, he goes back into his hole and waits for 6 more weeks of winter.

Give me clues when you can tell spring is almost here. Describe the "clues" that you can see, smell, hear, or touch. think, maybe even sports?
