Winter alone is useless. But with the other three seasons, winter is working for our preparation for new growth.

thanks for visiting, Victor. I share your sentiments....lots of 'stuff' happening in nature and in humans during the winter season. I try to remember that as the winter days just seem to linger. Have a great Monday, Sara
