Well, I'm a day early. All day yesterday on the news they kept saying tomorrow is the first day of summer! That was Friday the 19th. I'm severely ticked off now.

We celebrated the day yesterday, too. Today, the streets are eerily quiet. I think most people are still sleeping it off.

Love that photo of the golden lake -- makes me feel nostalgic, and I've never been there. Primordial memory, maybe.

Actually I listened closely again, and the 21st is the first full day of summer. The first day of summer according to the news started in the morning of the 20th. How dumb is that?

I didn't understand why our holiday is the 20th either, but mystery solved! I agree, it's totally dumb though. Why not make midnight the cut time instead of the morning? Aww, who cares, as long as summer is finally here.

Well in Southeast Missouri, I'm not so sure we're all happy summer has arrived. It's been 95 degrees with enough humidity to make it feel like 105 degrees. Today the weather stated, the coming week will fell the same every day, even though we're slated to get some rain one day. Our sauna season has arrived early instead of middle of July into September. I'd love to be outside, but with the temperature feeling like 105, its not safe unless one is submerged up to one's neck.

We are all in different time zones so that effects when summer begins. The summer solstice occurred at 1:43 EDT on June 21st.
It is considered to be summer when the sun moves into the constellation of cancer. This does not always fall on the same day.

Now go swimming
