Tonight we have the longest night of the year, for those of us in the northern hemisphere. The axis of the Earth is turned to its farthest point from the sun. I don’t like the short days, and I am glad that the longer days are on their way.
The weather was decent this afternoon, except for an occasional strong gust of wind. I felt like hibernating, but Charlie wanted to go out for an adventure. Finally I took him to Seven Bends State Park. We walked along the river for a little ways, but my back still bothers me so I didn’t go very far.
The shadows were lengthening, and the temperature was dropping. By the time I drove back across the Hollingsworth Road bridge, the sunlight was beginning to go away.
