It Gets Dark Much Earlier These Days.....

 
                              And the Solstice is (supposed to be) on the 21st......

                                    This is the "Longest Night" of the year.....

           Another Night that brought "Fear" unto the people and cultures of history.....
To the ancient Sumerians ... The Winter Solstice ( Dec. 21st) was the Night of the "Ashakku" demons....
