Solstice Squirrel

Aaaaaand there goes the weather again... this time a cold front bringing low cloud and rain. Ah well, it was nice while it lasted - ie, yesterday! This fellow provided me with a bit of an emergency blip this morning.

As we race through the winter solstice with all the enthusiasm of people who love a good party, it's a time to remember good things grow in the dark... The mistletoe has been hung at the door. There will be a little libation this evening as the Sun goes down and the longest night takes us through into a new cycle.

For those who celebrate midwinter, my blessings to you at Yule. And those for whom the celebrations begin in a few days time, enjoy your decorated trees and the rest of the pagan trappings. You're very welcome. ;-)
