The Winter solstice, December 20th/21st, for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, begins elongated periods of daylight. And, can Spring be far away? I used to think that the daylight gained ... or declined ... 1 minute, per day, depending on your hemisphere. But, it's a more gradual process, as the months progress toward the Spring solstice. (below) I hope that those of you who are south of the Equator had wonderful growing, and warm weather seasons. As you move into cooler climates, I wish you bountiful harvests, and lovely "comfort foods." Mother Nature had the perfect plan for allowing us to share the benefit of the Sun. wgntv.com/weather/skilling-explains-the-winter-solstice/#:~:text=Days%20lengthen%20after%20the%20winter,per%20day%20through%20May%2015.

Apparently, Nature intended for us to get more sun than most as the summers out here last from April/May to October/November and are, more often than not, accompanied by clear blue skies.

Oh, I'm sorry. I thought this thread was going to be about the Pointer Sisters.

Happy days are here again, The skies above are clear again Let us sing a song of cheer again Happy days are here again,
Altogether shout it now There's no one who can doubt it now So let's tell the world about it now Happy days are here again,
Your cares and troubles are gone They're be no more from now on Happy days are here again, The skies above are clear again
Let us sing a song of cheer again Happy days are here again,
So long sad time, so long bad time We are rid of you at last Howdy gay times, cloudy gray times You are now a thing of the past
Happy days are here again, The skies above are clear again Let us sing a song of cheer again Happy days are here again,
Altogether shout it now There's no one who can doubt it now So let's tell the world about it now Happy days are here again,
Your cares and troubles are gone They're be no more from now on Happy days are here again, The skies above are clear again
Let us sing a song of cheer again Happy days are here again, Happy days are here again, The skies above are clear again
Let us sing a song of cheer again Happy days are here again
