Summer Solstice


Light, after darkness.  In our Northern Hemisphere, Summer Solstice is the longest day of the year, and the official beginning of Summer.  Today, we enjoy a full six and a half hours more daylight than on the shortest day of the year, the Winter Solstice in December.  After griping all year about our neverending Winter, we're just going to let bygones be bygones, and enjoy the season.

The Longest Day...Shortest Blogpost!


This is a short blog on the longest day...because I'm heading back outside to enjoy the Summer sun!  It's officially Summer, here in the Northern Hemisphere!  This being the Summer Solstice, the sun won't set on Toronto until 9:02 tonight.  That's 15 hours, 26 minutes and 31 seconds of daylight!  Adios!  A bientot!
