February is such an odd month. It’s usually about the time I start to fall out of love with Winter and look forward to the arrival of Spring. This year is no exception. It’s been too cold and too crappy to play outside with my daughter. The last three weekends we have been trying to …
This is a picture, which is also my current header, is a sun pillar(column) at the farm. I took it on Christmas Eve. It’s the second one I’ve seen lately and it is beautiful. They occur around sunset and are caused by sunlight refracted into the atmosphere by small ice crystals.
