While it may mark the start of winter, where I live I see it as getting over the hump of the dark. Each day gets a little more daylight now.

This is the day I breathe a sigh of relief, knowing the hunger for light will be fulfilled by a few minutes more each day.

The fact that this planet was capable of supporting life in such great variety is really amazing.

All those seconds add up in the years time. Or should I say half a year's time ! The summer solstice is just six months away.

Huh??????......Golfing up to Civil Twilight mid June to July is my drivers most active time

For those who don't know, Civil Twilight is the time before and after sunset when no illumination is necessary for outdoor activities............Basically dusk

10 AM today, but is no fun dancing in the day light, the neighbors complain about the nudity.

The shortest day of the year is Tuesday. Here's what to know about the winter solstice.

The winter solstice – which marks the beginning of astronomical winter in the Northern Hemisphere – occurs on Tuesday.
