cold and rainy today.
And for the first time last night I noticed the shortening days.
It stays light here so late sometimes it seems like the sun will never set. It can even be fairly light in the small hours of the morning. But last night as I was getting ready for bed, around 9:30, I noticed that it was dusky out, the sun definitely setting.
Because we are so far north, the changes in daylight length between summer and winter are really noticable. Summer it stays light for ages. Winter it is dark by about 4:30.
I like both states of being. I enjoy long summer days, but I also like the dark mornings so I don’t get woken up on winter mornings.
I do wish the weather was nicer between times. This summer has been all rain. And so will the winter.
Tee, you live in Belfast. You have no chance of nice weather. Sorry.
We had a lovely May, actually!
