Happy Solstice!
21 Dec 2025 10:16At one point, I had thought to go down to river for sunrise when the temp was still predicted to be above 40F (4.4C). But by last night it was only going to be around 37F (2.8C), and I decided that just was a bit too chilly to be climbing over the railroad tracks and walking the trails! I did wake up just at sunrise though, for what that was worth 🙂

I decided to try the 13 wishes thing this year -- (https://truenortharts.com/2025/10/25/how-to-practice-the-13-wishes-ritual/). I'll start that this evening.

Update
When it got warmer, I went down to the trail. It was good to be there again! Most of the rocks were not accessible unless I wanted to get my shoes soaked, so I only went out as far as I could.
