Sunrises here have been amazingly gorgeous lately. It could just be that I am noticing them because we had such a long stretch of overcast mornings, but the vivid pinks and oranges are a lovely way to start my morning.

Yes. One of the many things I am loving about the sunrises this time of year is that they're so late in the morning that it's no hardship for me to get up in time to watch!

Are you traveling tomorrow-day, or leaving after work?

I am hoping to leave work around one or two at the latest, so a little of both...:)

Right-o. Hope you get south before the "mixed precipitation" we're supposed to get tomorrow night begins...

Merry Solstice! May you be visited by a solstice moose! (It's boblyd's fault I've heard of such things... *grin*)

There is, in fact, a present sitting up in our library that is from the Solstice Moose! *happydance*

Ah shit.. did I sneeze on you?

I'm sorry, dear.

raven_albion December 21 2006, 20:00:33 UTC

Nah. I'm pretty sure that this is the cold that I get EVERY year around this time. It is nothing if not predictable. :P

I can't get on it from work,but it is supposed to be cool, at least according to the reference site. Maybe it is bunk. Happy Solstice. I'll be out there... Yawn
