Winter Solstice




The garden is perfectly dressed in white for a winter solstice celebration. Starting today instead of less and less sunlight we begin to get more and more. It's just like reaching the top of a mountain. We have some distance to travel to reach spring, but now it's a downhill run all the way. Every day will be a little longer and the sun a little higher in the sky. Time to start getting serious about plans for next years garden.

I have been reading through your blog, all the way back to the spring, and became captivated by the way your husband builds these stone walls, and with your garden in general. You really keep a concise record of some points in time that are memorable. I am glad I'm going to keep following you as the winter turns to spring! Keep warm in the snow. I don't have any, and wish I did!! Jan

That's a really beautiful scene!

I'm so happy we're on the "right" side of the winter solstice now!
