Winter Solstice

In a rare show of holiday spirit, it snowed just before the Solstice. The berries are offering the traditional hope of spring on the darkest of cold days.


This little tree even seems to be budding.


I like the winter scene in the playground. In the summer, the sprinklers cool the children.


I would have liked to catch these snowflake lights when they were lit. But the Solstice brought rain which washed away much of the snow. It is still wintry though. The rain froze at night and the streets are icy.


Happy Solstice
