Tomorrow is the first day since October that the sun rises before 8am.
At last the sun's arc has moved above the Douglas Fir and hit the back wall unobstructed.
I feel like a definite threshold has been passed.
What's it like for others?
Second - yah, it's been so cold around here the chickens come up on my back deck and stare at me accusingly through the glass - "Make it Warm!!!" the squawk
Today it will be over 50 (for a bit). It is like the feeling of hope. The promise of spring
