How are you spending the summer solstice?
Front-Ranger:
Sounds like everyone had a rather "wet" summer solstice! And that's a good thing...very Brokieish! Or Brokesque...or Brokistic... whatever!
I also drew a Tarot card for the occasion, and it was the King of Cups! Very appropriate!
Front-Ranger:
This candle that I lit at the summer solstice is the same one I lit at the standing stones of Callanish one year ago. I went to each stone in turn and touched it, and stopped when I encountered one that seemed warm to the touch and "spoke" to me.
The lighter was given to me by the chef at Gallan Head, a small restaurant where we ate before going to the stones. They served excellent seafood, which you might expect for a place in the outer Hebrides group of islands far to the north and west in the Atlantic!! I'm so grateful that British Airways did not seem to mind me bringing it on the plane to home!
Jeff Wrangler:
Today is the Summer Solstice, "the longest day of the year." From now on, inexorably, the days will begin to grow shorter.
Anyone going to dance naked around a bonfire tonight? ;D
Front-Ranger:
Probably not. There's a fire ban here.
It's cloudy and gloomy, but that's all right as long as it's sunny before and after.
Monika:
I´m gonna visit the University of Wyoming Art Museum to participate in their annual summer solstice celebration
