The Winter Solstice


Yesterday was the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. Ancient people such as the Druids used to celebrate this day, welcoming the point at which the days began to once again grow longer. There are actually modern day Druids who keep up these ancient traditions at places such as Stonehenge. I suspect these ceremonies probably involve lots of beer. Count me in!
