On the Summer Solstice, which occurs on June 21, the Sun is at its highest path through the sky and the day is the longest. Because the day is so long the Sun does not rise exactly in the east, but rises to the north of east and sets to the north of west allowing it to be in the sky for a longer period of time.
So whats your plans for the longest day of the year. I'm off to the beach with friends. Happy first day of summer to all of you in blog land.

Hmmm...a little outdoor fire time and then SNOOOOOOZZZZZEEE. Can you tell it has been a long day? And now I know I can say that literally ;0)
My plans changed, I went on a Mt. bike ride 7.8 miles 1.5 hours. I will deserve a beach day tomorrow.
