Yay! Today we had 4 more seconds of daylight than yesterday and tomorrow we'll get 8 more seconds of daylight than today!
And I want you all to know that I appreciate every one of those seconds!
@bobjonkman I think the mornings continue to slip later still into early January, but I'm appreciating that the afternoons are brightening so as to outpace the depressing late mornings! Yay sunlight!
Orbital mechanics is a harsh (and complicated) mistress.
