Changing Seasons...

Well, it's the end of November, and we're finally starting to feel the chill. The locals say that it doesn't usually get this cold this fast, but it doesn't feel too different from Pennsylvania.

The strangest thing is the path of the sun. Today it rose 20 minutes before eight, thanks to daylight savings, but it set one minute after 4! Having only 8 hours of daylight is kind of a shock, and we're not at the bottom yet. The sun stays so low that I'm surprised it's not colder than it is. We're reading Jules Verne's "Journey to the Centre of the Earth," and we can appreciate the setting. :)

On the positive side, it's been sunny for over a week, and might stay that way for a few days more.

For your enjoyment, I took a few pictures outside our place. I hope you enjoy them.
