I don’t much like winter, either, but I have to enjoy every one of these days without starting my dislike of winter a few months earlier than necessary! [...]

I was on the road and got a few shots of the developing sunset in the Teslin-JC area: http://www.explorenorth.com/wordpress/?p=251

And I have the same feelings about the summer solstice, & the winter equinox (although I don’t mind winter, either) … Funny, isn’t it ?!

“I’m probably the only one in the world who doesn’t much like the summer solstice” —wrong, this is definitely a chromosome thing. I’ve shed crocodile tears every June 21 longer than you inhabit the surface of this globe.

Would you like to chip in on a cottage on Tierra del Fuego?

I completely agree with this thought. Having grown up in a much warmer climate (southern Ontario) I will always long for nice weather that lasts from May until October. I love the Yukon, really I do, but a few more months of summer would make this place absolutely perfect. But I guess that would mean everyone would want to live here and we don’t want that….do we?

You’re a “glass half-full” kind of girl – it’s just that in this instance the halves are reversed (half-empty is really half-full and visa versa). Does that make sense to anyone else?
