Remembering sunshine

Another grey and foggy day. At least it has stopped raining, for the moment. Days like this, it's good to find a photo or two from sunnier times.

This one is from last September, in Bear Creek Park.

Tibouchina, aka Glory bush, Princess flower.

And one more week until our earth relents and starts to bring our northlands around to face the sun again.

(That's an awfully long way to say "the winter solstice", isn't it?)
