WELCOME WEEK
A VERY PROMISING START
BIG CROWDS OUT AND ABOUT
STREETS CROWDED ON SATURDAY NIGHT:
Wellington is making a great experiment… whether a mid-winter carnival can be carried on to complete success. Saturday evening saw the start… the weather held good and unexpectedly great crowds of citizens and visitors turned out to watch the gala procession wind through the streets.…

This song represents the fact i have been stuck in an ice-cloud with a three year old for a while now with no end in sight.

Kinda a banger tho

Some nice bleak bleakness. Lots of ritual. Finally found my perfect solstice album.

Game 6: Midwinter (1990), by Maelstrom Games.

Graphically very impressive for its time. One of those games you need to read the manual for because I had no idea what I was doing or how the interface worked.

You play as a commando of sorts and travel around on a wintry island by ski or snowmobile, firing rockets and lobbing grenades at "the enemy", or simply sniping their airplanes out of the sky. You probably have a good reason for doing so.

Ice on the windows;
warm inside for seed-starting.
Tis Mid-Winter’s Day.

The Sun grows stronger,
though now all is asleep,
soon Spring will be here.

Though last year’s beech leaves still shiver in the wind, a new season is rising from within the earth.

Happy St. Brigid’s Day!

Brigid is an emblem & energy for the reverence of Nature, of healing & kindness to all (especially the poor & the animals), & of the equality of women. I also lean into her role as the patron saint of poets! In the photo is a poem of mine in honor.

Today, as winter pivots from the darkness towards the coming spring light, may we give thanks for the beauty of the earth and all its beings.
