I am so excited about summer coming – I miss summer evening dog walks!

I don’t mind either way, but mummy prefers the lighter mornings

YAY!!!!! Been so busy, didn’t think about it- though I’d seen it on the calendar and was looking forward to it- LOVE the days getting longer, more light the better. Also, to me, it means we’re getting closer to the warmer days!!

I just feel better knowing there will be more light every day. I’m not sure if the dogs really notice it or not, but they’re glad for more time to have fun together!

We look forward to the longer days too! Unfortunately when it’s dark in the evenings, walks are primarily for bathroom breaks and most playing has to been done inside. But when it’s bright and sunny out… we all get to enjoy ourselves a little more. Spring can’t come quickly enough!

The solstice just means no more short days. I hate that I can’t walk our dogs as much as I like. We’re lucky to have the land that we have so that we can play fetch at night, but it’s not good enough for me so I’m going to enjoy watching the light last longer.

I remember really well the first winter I spent in Massachusetts–I was suddenly struck by “Oh, THAT’S why the Solstice is a big deal.” Now that we’re much further south it’s less of an issue.

I’m sure I was a bear in my past lives and got to hibernate through the cold and dark days. We do a happy dance to celebrate the Winter Solstice every year.

“More shedding to cover the dirt.” I like the way you think. Happy Winter Solstice!
