Solstice

So today is the shortest day of the year.  According to the U.S. Naval Observatory Astronomical Applications Department there will be 9 hours and 11 minutes of daylight today; compare that to the 15 hours and 22 minutes on June 21st!

In keeping with our little tradition, we've changed the look of our blog again to a more wintry look.

Also, if you're bummed about the daylight being so short today...cheer up!  Tomorrow it will be brighter for a whole 1 minute longer!
