winter solstice!

after work flight

 

This afternoon after work, I was going to go for a little flight in my space kayak…

 

 

 

 where is the sun going...

 

It was so very cold!  The window that I usually fly out of in the winter was frozen shut, & when I was able to pry it open, in tumbled a small mountain of ice & snow!

 

 

 

 

 maybe tomorrow!

 

Before I knew it, the sun had plopped down below the horizon!  Then I remembered, it was the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year here in the Northern Hemisphere!   

 

Although I am able to fly in the dark, I really prefer to fly when it is light out…so that I can see…

 

 

 

 

 tomorrow then!

 

I guess I’ll just wait for tomorrow, when the days start getting longer again!  Hurray for sunlight! 

 

 

love,
