miscellaneous

lots to do took me to town today.  i was there much longer than anticipated or wanted to be.  however, there is a benefit to being out after dark this time of year: the decorations of the holiday season can be enjoyed.  the city decorations were enjoyed until town disappeared in the rear view window and the country was before me.  along the way, a house here and there shone with the a magic that is only present during christmas.

tomorrow is the first day of winter, the shortest day of the year.  the following day will bring a few more minutes of daylight and for each day thereafter until the longest day of the year, june 21st, the first day of summer.  the rhythm of the earth. and the creatures of the earth, including humans, follow this rhythm as well.  happy winter's eve!
