I’ll be honest, I’m not a fan of the winter months and the cold weather. But, since I live in New England, I don’t have much of a choice. It is true, the last few winters have not been that bad overall: not a lot of snow, mostly a “mix” and I was able to see my grass for most of them. Despite the lack of snow, the winters were still bitterly, bitterly cold.

However, today I was reminded of the beauty of a December morning.

One of the benefits of this time of year is I am more often than not up early enough to watch the sunrise. And look at those colors! So pretty and bright!

A downside though, is by the time my work day ends, the sun is already asleep.

But, there is some hope: I heard that sunsets after 5:00 PM begin at the end of January! Only a few weeks…long weeks, for sure…but it’ll be here soon enough. Even 2020 has seemed to “go by” quickly. For me, at least.
