The winter solstice arrived early this morning, hours before I got up. For several years now I've been having a fire on this day, in cold temperatures and in a bit of snow, but we have both this year.
So, no winter solstice fire pit this year but at least the days will start getting longer. Very soon here I will be making the drive to Mom's and will be spending the night. My wife will be staying back and taking care of her dad, as usual. This week will be especially hard for her with the holidays, as well. My sister and her family were supposed to arrive there yesterday but they came down sick, and it sounds like my brother and his family will be there for a few hours this evening. This is our Christmas gathering this year. Happy solstice, everyone.

Happy Solstice! Enjoy the time with family.
Happy Solstice, belatedly. Hope it all works out with care for the older generation. It's not easy, is it?

Thank you. And no, BW, especially Kate's dad is not easy at all. Thankfully my Mom is still doing well, but I worry.
