There is just nothing like light shining through bare trees to magnify the beauty of the earth and the sky. You don’t have to wait for the Solstice to enjoy bare trees and sunlight.
Rain will usher in this December– Cold, bone-chilling rain. Will there be snow? Will this winter be snowy? What signs to you look for?
My all time reliable signal of snow to come is trees that are heavily-laden with fruit, nuts, berries or seeds. I think we might be in for some of the white stuff this winter.
