Happy Winter!

Post by Daniel C. Oberloh »

Happy Winter Solstice ya all. Sue and I are taking a little break and will be off to Port Townsend Washington, out on the peninsula. It's a regular event for us. Its nice to have a moment and take a little breather, even if it is only for the day. Just curious what other folks around the world do on the 21st of December?

Happy Holidays!

I don't have to use a replica. The real thing is only 15 minutes drive away :lol:

I sat here at work and said "damn, it's getting dark early today."

Followed by December 22nd, where I sat at work and said "days are getting longer!"

I do have a question for Herr Oberloh:

As you know, I live in Port Townsend. I read the Port Angeles newspaper nearly every day and, in the "Seen Around" column in today's paper, there was talk of a lone man skinny-dipping on the Winter Solstice at Fort Worden.

The question is:

Was that you?
