The Winter Solstice



Whenever the Winter or Summer Solstices come around, I feel like I should do something to mark the day; like run naked through the trees or howl at the moon.  Instead, I lit a bonfire and helped the grandchildren roast marshmallows.  

I guess it was a success, because they kept telling me how cool it was.  What higher praise could I get?  It wasn't as exciting as my former ideas but more appropriate, I guess.  Sigh.....

You are so funny! Bonfires are always a hit!

Yes, the bonfire was probably a better idea than running naked through the pecan orchard. Don't want to give the neighbors the wrong impression! Hee hee!

And what impression would that be? Is that a fat joke, Laurel?
