HIGH ABOVE

Yesterday or today are the longest day of the year.

Franklin and I can look forward to after supper walks that get cooler and cooler and darker and darker.

Because we are behind the mountains on the west our day is already shorter than a lot of other people. But since there is no moisture in the air, when the sun is out we get the full radiation.

Of course the heat will continue all the way to September. But this is the first sign of a change for the "better".

Actually we like the heat or we wouldn't be here.

Here. Everything you wanted to know and more about the summer solstice.
