  1. The winter solstice is tomorrow at our place. Once the shortest day is over we can usually look forward to colder days and rougher weather for a few weeks. Then in September the wind starts blowing for a month or two. And then it is summer, so no complaints.
    I love your postcards.

  2. Doubt if the Druids at Stonehenge were happy with no sun showing on the shortest day
