February - The Month to Observe...

February is home to Groundhog Day (2nd), Washington's and Lincoln's birthdays (12th and 22nd), President's Day (21st), and Valentine's Day (14th). I should mention that my friend Tina's birthday is the 12th and my very own Dale's birthday is the 13th (and yes, he was born on Friday the 13th which explains a lot!). They should both be national holidays, but aren't so we will leave those as just a shout out to them.

February is home to:

Boy Scout anniversary Week (8th to 14th)
