The winter solstice is definitely noteworthy in the Pacific Northwest. It marks the beginning of days getting longer. This doesn’t always translate into more light due to the often heavy cloud cover, but you know it is happening. So almost a day late. But around the winter solstice if you work your normal day you will not see the sun (maybe at lunch). This morning – Sunrise at 7:55 AM, Sunset at 4:22 PM.
Celebrate, celebrate, dance and twirl, sing out your songs and rejoice.
Even though the calendar still says short days, today is going to be one of my longest. Up at 4 AM so I could drop off a co-worker (the carpooler) at the airport this early AM. And then Rey arrives at same said airport sometime around midnight tonight.
