Joyous Feast of the Sun's Return

[madrobins]

Whatever your religious- or celebratory status, holiday-wise, isn't it nice to know that we're on the cusp of our orbit, heading back toward long summer, balmy days and the humming of contented wildlife outside the window? Okay, that's a fantasy-memory of summers in my childhood. But really, when my toes are cold and it's raining outside, it's heartening to know that the light is poised to return.

Happy solstice, y'all.
