Jan.21 and Feb.4

A while back I did some math.  I learned that the 21st of a month is an anniversary in each season.  By convention, each of our seasons begins on the 21 of a month: Dec., March, June and Sept.  So that means that the recent Sunday was the day marking the end of the first third of winter. Many people do not enjoy snow, ice and cold.  Some do. Regardless of feelings, the first third of the winter has passed.


That is one of the dates I mentioned in this post's title.  The other is Feb. 4.  That math I did convinced me that Feb. 4 is the mid-point of the official days of winter.  So, it's coming.  After Feb.4 , winter will be half over.
