Man, people are depressed these days – hard times economically and almost everyone seems to have the blues, or at least a sinus infection.

But I have some good news for you. Today is the Winter Solstice. Last night was the longest night of the year, and today the shortest day. That means it’s only uphill from now on – an extra minute of sunlight each day will eventually bring us to Spring. 

So shake off those blues, mull some wine tonight and sigh in relief. Watch the webcast of the solstice at Newgrange. Everything’s going to be all right. The sun is coming back…
