Seasons Greetings

[Mark M]

This is a day late but what the heck!

Yesterday was winter solstice here (probably for you too) and the shortest day of the year, and the longest night. The sun runs its lowest and most southerly path across the sky, of the whole year. It is the first day of winter, here in the northern hemisphere. After this, the days will be getting longer, and nights shorter. It is no coincidence, the major holidays of many great religions are celebrated around Solstice. I wish you all a wonderful holiday season, whichever you celebrate.

As a side note we had 75+ mph winds (hurricane force) here in the Dakota's, minus way-below-zero wind chill, and near white-out conditions just to celebrate the first day of winter! Ya know them cows can stand up pretty good against the high wind but when it stops blowing they all tip over! Today everyone is out standing up the cows.

Seasons Greetings

Merry Christmas everyone  
Hey Mark,  when are you bringing the company plane
to Peoria to pick up those logs I've got for you?
I know you don't have too many trees in the Dakotas
cause I saw your photo trip journal from a year or so ago.  ;D
