Tiny Lights

Thousands of them adding to the atmospheric small town common.  Here we are on the eve of the Winter Solstice .  Tomorrow will be the darkest, shortest day of the year and then it starts the trek back to longer and brighter days.  Hey, that makes me happy.  

“I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says, “Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.”  ~ Lewis Carroll
