We’re getting about a half-hour more of daylight now than a month ago. That’s a half-hour less of dark.
When it’s been dark, SO DARK for SO LONG and it starts to turn around, you don’t notice it at first.
It can take awhile to realize.
Then one day you can’t miss it.
You’ll see.
More than half-an-hour in my latitude.
Last week was when I noticed the sun made it above the hills for the first time since... Maybe November?
It's been -40 to -50 below this last week, but every time I went out to the barn to feed the animals in the morning I got a case of the giggles, because my heart was singing, "Winter is OVER!" at a temperature where I can't walk from house to barn bare-handed.
