Winter Solstice

So glad to welcome the Solstice and longer days ahead.

I'm not one that celebrates the darkness, cocooning, or the quiet times in the garden. Nor do I love hot summer days.

But light is always welcome, and I'm grateful to live in a part of the world that experiences only a bit less than 10 hours of daylight in our shortest days --from mid-December to mid-January.

Hooray for longer days to come.
