With the midday sun as low as it gets in the sky, one of our local antifascist groups, Peaceful Patriots, organized an appearance in downtown Oshkosh.
A holiday theme at this time of year.
A fuzzy headed liberal.
A volunteer warned me about the dangers of being doxxed, so I was careful to ask everyone's permission. Most were happy to pose.
This protester was conversing with a guy with a silver snare drum, his head enclosed in a heavy knit hat, and his face obscured by a scarf and sunglasses. He didn't want to be photographed and stepped away. She cheerfully posed alone. We had a conversation about how odd it was to have to protest extrajudicial killing and piracy on the high seas. Not to mention invading a sovereign country to profit from oil again.
Our annual lefse production run. Wouldn't be Yule without it, although there are Norse culinary traditions we happily have let lapse.

Santa puts on more traditional ornaments.
New Year's Eve dinner.

Someday, gold may also regain its symbolism of celebration.
Merry Perihelion!
