cold hard (absurd) winter
1 day ago ago from Who is the absurd man?
We just finished reading Simon Ortiz’s Before and After the Lightning about a winter spent on the Rosebud Lakota Sioux Reservation in South Dakota. Ortiz teaches at the Reservation from November through mid-April – a season the Lakota call the time before the last lightning and after the first, bookends to the long winter. It makes for good reading in a warm comfortable room by the fire on cold winter nights with snow on the ground outside. ...

Unlike most people, I actually love winter. Maybe it's because I grew up in Alberta, or because I just don't like being too hot, but there's a crisp cleanness to winter that I love.

12 hours ago ago from Huffington Post
December twenty-first is winter solstice, the shortest day of the year. That makes the 22nd the first day of more sun! Let me spell that out. Beginning this week we're on a path toward "sun breaks" and dry sidewalks, a time when people will take their fleeces off for long enough to wash them, a time that pet poop will dry out enough that your kids can scoop it off the lawn.
