Greeting, Friends , family, and "others",
TOnight in Celebration of the shortest day of the year, the
beginning of the new year for some of us gardeners, sometimes
also known as the darkest day of the year, or the coldest night
of the year, I am going to turn on my Holiday lights and leave
them on for 24 hours. I don't have lights enough to strain the
already overburdened California power structure, and besides
this day is also known as "The Festival of Lights".
As we search for ways to celebrate this troublesome holiday in
ways that are more appropriate, I offer this up as one pleasant
way to acknowledge that something special is going on. And your
neighbors might enjoy them as well. So, tonight, as the sun
sets, let's see those lights.
With love and hope for a wonderful and productive New Year to
all.
loretta gerity jacobs, pele the dog, hillary the cat, the "Six
barbaras", and the lone fish known as Mulder.
