Winter Solstice



Today, December 21st is the shortest day of the year, also known as the Winter Solstice. Today also marks the beginning of Winter. From today onwards, each day will add about another minute of daylight (or was it second?) until the Summer Solstice (the longest day of the year).

A friend of mine has her birthday today, and its one of those few dates that I remember because of the date. I wish her a happy birthday.
