Summer Solstice 2011
« on: June 20, 2011 »
Is tomorrow incase you're interested!

Quote
A solstice is an astronomical event that happens twice each year when the Sun's apparent position in the sky reaches its northernmost or southernmost extremes

The solstice / equinox is considered to be the end of / start of the season so technically this is the end of spring and the start of summer. Bucket and spade at the ready!
