The Winter Soltice

We say goodbye to the season of Autumn at 12:47pm December 21, 2009 and the Winter Soltice officially ushers in the Winter season! It starts as the sun reaches its southernmost point - in essence the shortest day of the year & yet the longest night of the year!!

I will be spending the Christmas holiday alone again this year with the hope of visiting my sisters the week of December 28 including the New Year celebrations providing the weather is good!! My town didnt get the massive snowstorm that engulfed the east coast areas this past saturday into sunday snarling traffic ectera, but just a dusting of 2 inches - however, a wintry mix is promised for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day!!!

To those whom have stopped by to visit A Curious Spectator since its inception July 31st 2009, may the blessings and joy of this Christmas season be with you throughout the coming year!!!

The Winter Solstice, I had almost forgotten. Think I'll drink a martini to that. Merry Christmas.
