We celebrated Yule and the winter solstice yesterday with a walk to Scorhill stone circle up on Dartmoor. Pools of sunlight slanted between broken clouds, highlighting the wind-ruffled, blonde grass. Then, broaching the last hill onto 'the top of the world', we caught sight of a rainbow, with one its pots of gold inside the circle. Magical. And I wasn't carrying my camera!
So here's a frosted periwinkle, instead. Just starting to open in the wilder parts of the garden and the hedgerows, they're tough little beauties.
Hooray for longer days! Happy Christmas, bloggers!
