At last we are on the uphill stretch to Summer! All of the darkness is starting to get me down. It’s not as bad as a Scandanavian winter, and I don’t mind the cold too much but I hate arriving at work in the dark and getting home in the dark. What little time I get outside during the day is in the shadow of high-rises, which create dark windy corridors. The wind is good for one thing; it makes the waves. There hasn’t been enough surf lately. Thanks goodness for winter storms!
