2015 winter solstice…

Do you know anyone who went to Stonehenge yesterday to celebrate the Winter Solstice there?   I don’t know anyone who was there on Tuesday morning to witness sunrise on the  shortest day  of the year,  but I was acquainted with one among the five thousand who did so in 2014.

On the other hand,  I have visited Stonehenge on a day of no particular importance,  before the authorities had to rope the structure off to protect it,  and I was impressed with both the size of the stones and the ingenuity required for a supposedly primitive people to cope with them.
