The second shortest day

 


Today marked the beginning of winter and the shortest day of the year. It's a little bit of a rip off to have the shortest day again so soon, but I saw a glorious sunrise when I woke up at 7 this morning and the colors were great when I walked the dog at 4:30 this afternoon (pictured).  Also, I'm only a day in, but I'm digging the winter so far. Pineapples were a buck a piece at our local fruit mart; The waves are getting huge and the ocean sounds fantastic; I saw my first toucan in the wild; and I got invited to go on a hike. Apparently the hiking is good this time of year because the mosquitos and snakes are controlled and the temps are just right. My most recent winter in Salt Lake was really grand, with the record breaking snow and all, but I'm looking to whatever this second winter has to offer.
