Today is the summer solstice, the longest day of the year. We did some calculating last night and figured out that there are approximately seven more hours of daylight today than there were exactly six months ago, which is pretty amazing.
It's also my half-birthday, which I used to celebrate every year when I was younger. On December 21, 2007, my actual birthday, I took this picture of a tree in my backyard.
It was about midnight and it had been snowing for twenty hours. I thought it was beautiful.
Today I took this picture of the same tree.
I love the seasons here-- it's one of my favorite things about the place I grew up. Happy Solstice!
