I loved that movie and I wish I visit this town some day. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

I just finished watching the film ‘GROUNDHOG DAY’ on TV (even though we own a video). All the family walked through the room as the movie progressed; they would pause, laugh or say a few lines in unison with the characters. WE LOVE THIS PICTURE! This is no longer a mere film, it is a ‘Classic’ and has become endeared to all generations.
This little community ought to host a week-long series of events. Have all kinds of activities to compliment the scenes and characters in the film. It would be a boost to the local economy and make GROUNDHOGS DAY special all over again!

[...] Another year has passed. The year started in Deerfield visiting Amy’s parents, where on 1 January we went to Illinois Beach State Park and later that week visited Woodstock where Groundhog Day was filmed. Then in March we went to India for 18 days where we toured around Rajasthan and saw tigers and palaces and played Holi. Throughout the summer we did a lot of hiking and going to bird hides in the Netherlands. In May we did a long excursion at Zwanenwater with Natuurmonumenten. In June we drove to Brittany in France where we canoed in Brière nature park, saw prehistoric megaliths in Carnac, walked along the coast in Amorique nature park, and visited the medieval town of Guérande. We also made some practise dives in Nemo 33 in Brussels and at Oostvoornse Meer. In August Amy took me to Madrid for my 30th birthday, which was my first time in Spain, and two months later we went to South Florida where we hiked in the Everglades and dived off the Florida Keys. Here is my personal best and worst of 2006 in the categories adventure, discovery, hotel, experience, buy and surprise. [...]

My friends live in Woodstock next to the town square. Bill Murry while filming was going to stay at my grandmother’s house in Marengo, but she said no. Also the lady I work with is Bill Murry’s 2nd cousin. Small world huh?

I spent most weekends for about three years in Woodstock, IL. Love the Opera House and town square. The Woodstock Jewelers is visible in the background in the movie behind Ned’s first entrance.

What fun! thanks.

[...] Today is Groundhog Day, and this reminds me to our visit to Woodstock IL in December, where the film Groundhog Day was filmed. There are events today in Punxsutawney PA and Woodstock IL for the event. [...]
