Happy Friday everyone. I hope everybody is doing well. Post any photos, memes, or music you like

Happy Winter Solstice. The first day of winter has brought moderate temps and rain showers with it. We have now had at least one day with rain every month this year. I've lived in San Diego since 1977 and I don't recall that ever happening before. It's not uncommon to get a day of rain during one of the summer months, but to get rain every month during the summer is out of the norm.
Stay warm and dry and have a happy holiday season.

Winter means snow and while other areas of the country have snow right now, this Snowy Egret and its friends are the closest thing we have to snow right now.

Snowy Egret.

I begin this composition Thursday evening. I will not go back to work until the day after Christmas.

I wanted to bring this to everyone's attention.

Io Saturnalia!

It's Winter Solstice (in this part of the northern hemisphere), the day with the shortest amount of sunlight for the year! And it's part of Saturnalia!

Chester, in England, still celebrates Saturnalia! (from a BBC article this year about Chester and the celebration)

Well, vacation is over. Back at my computer w/ wifi access. It was hard posting on the road with my smartyphone and Verizon. The I-5 corridor was a bit spotty with coverage and some of the RV parks we stayed at advertised wifi, but was even more spotty.
