Happy Winter Solstice

 

The Labyrinth Walk in Eastsound on Orcas Island.

 

 

On a side note, I'm sad to say that I can no longer keep up my half of the daily end of Bellingham Daily Photo.  I enjoy taking pictures and will continue to do so, but with two young daughters, I just do not have the time or energy to post daily.  Thank you for taking the time to visit and I hope you drop in occasionally to see what we are up to.

Labyrinth

To celebrate the Winter Solstice this year, my family and lizziviggi's walked the labyrinth at Fairhaven Park in the dark with flashlights and hot chocolate.  This wonderful design was our reward at the center. 

Skywatch Friday: Waiting for St. Nick

This chimney, silhouetted against a wintry sunset, waits patiently for Santa Claus to come visit.

I took this picture on Wednesday, December 22, at 3:55 PM. The sun sank below the horizon at 4:16 PM, but gave us 2 more seconds of daylight than the previous day, the shortest day of the year. Longer days are already here! ;-)
