Winter Solstice

O winter! ruler of the inverted year, ....
I crown thee king of intimate delights, fireside enjoyment, home-born happiness and all the comforts that the lowly roof of undisturbe'd retirement, and the hour of long uninterrupted evening, know.
William Cowper
When the world was really cold a week ago, or so, I started making ice luminaria, thinking that I would make so many that I would line the driveway; clearly I was thinking to much! And loving the ice too much.
Now we have had rain. Thawing and rain!
But I did get 4 nice ice vessels and last night, on the longest night, I lit them up brilliantly!
Welcome Winter!
