ONE OF MY FAVORITE DAYS OF THE YEAR
Monday, December 21, 2020

Last night was the longest hours of darkness and today the shortest hours of daylight - welcome to the winter solstice. This particular solstice is noteworthy because it is also hosting a Great Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn.

But I like today because we finally start regaining a few minutes of daylight each day... while I enjoy being out at night, the majority of my time to walk, run, ride, snowshoe, and XC ski is after work, and right now that's pretty much got to be in the dark. Soon (well, in two months) that will no longer be the case...
