Groundhog Day and February "Best Shirt" Award

On Friday, February 2nd, 2007, the planets were aligned in such a fashion over Akumal that we were able to simultaneously celebrate Ground Hog Day, Robin's February Best Shirt Award, and the Full Snow Moon at the Lol Ha Beach Bar during the "normal" Friday night Happy Hour.  Bud Blatner, President of the Akumal Groundhog Day Inner Circle, did come through with a new batch of groundhog jerky from Thailand, as promised, and he circled the bar area distributing it to all the guests.  Mary Henderson once again hosted the Robin's "Best Shirt" Award, and needless to say, this phenomenon brought out all the local stars, and the men had gotten their "best shirt" out of the closet and made Mary's decision a very difficult one.

The next "Best Shirt" competition is scheduled for the first Friday of March, on the 9th, so there is plenty of time to import  some fancy shirts, now that we have some idea of what Mary and her selected panel members are leaning towards.
