Winter Soltice 2018

December 21, 2018

This is one of my favorite photos from the hunting property. My niece was only about four years old then.
This is one of my favorite winter photos from the hunting property. My niece was only about four years old then. Predominant evergreens in the area are Balsam Fir, Black Spruce, White Spruce, Hemlock and Northern White Cedar, all of which make great Christmas trees.

Today is the first day of winter which means Christmas day will soon be here. Hopefully you’ll be celebrating the Christmas holiday with family and friends, sharing delicious food and awesome presents. Here in Wisconsin this winter will definitely be bringing us a “white Christmas.” A reminder to be thankful for the four seasons and the joy they bring to our lives. Where would we natural landscapers be without the four seasons in which to play?

My wish for you is a wonderful Christmas celebration and some quiet time to reflect on the happenings of the past year.

In the words of Stephen Colbert “may your winter feast be an orgy of delight!“
