    I am also looking forward to the longer days. We live in the forest and don't get much sun in the summer and this time of the year we get almost no sun.

    We are now preparing for the winter storms coming in this weekend. They say we could get 2 feet of snow.

    Merry Christmas

    I'm still looking for those fireballs, but in the meantime--Happy brand new 14th Baktun! I'm going to celebrate with some Mayan hot chocolate.

    I had to cancel a ski trip and Christmas visit to Mammoth and Tahoe because of that weather. I love the snow and cold but driving in it - or skiing in it - is terrible. But nice to know that the end of the world didn't happen (or is that tonight?) so I will live to ski another day :-)! Happy Holidays everyone!!

    I think you can pretty much rest easy that we're safe. It's 3:38 here on the East Coast and most of the world now is tomorrow and it didn't end for them so I think we're all ok.

    haha!! Yes, I'm so glad we've turned the corner on dark days/nights from 4:30pm-7am! But I guess even long, dark days beat a meteor slamming into the planet or the north pole suddenly shifting.

    We live in the Sierras on hwy 4 near Bear Valley ski area. Yesterday was opening day for them and from all the traffic going up the hill it must have been busy. Skiing was also free on opening day. They say we could get 2 feet of snow out of this storm.
