Travis Johnson wrote:Summer Solstice has actually always made me feel glum. Part of it is living in Maine where it is said we have two seasons:
1. Winter
2. Getting ready for winter
With today being the longest day of the year, that just means we are now descending closer towards winter. Just 19 days ago we had frost, so to think of the days growing shorter day by day, is what makes me glum. Frost will not return again until September granted, but as the weather people say each day the shortening of the days, I get melancholy.

Uff. I'm sorry for the glum, Travis.
I'm kind of amazed at how long the winters are in Montana, too. Being from Seattle (five years ago now!) which doesn't really have winter, the upside of Montana winters for me had been more sunlight. And the snow brightens the days just so beautifully! And the the dry cold is so much easier to take IMHO than the constant damp drizzle in Seattle. I've learned I love shoveling snow here. Admittedly, we probably don't get as much snow as Maine, though it's an activity that gets me outside doing something useful and caretaking of my home, so I enjoy it.
The way I look at it with the shorter days is that we'll get some respite from the heat. It does get hot during the summer days here in Montana, more than Seattle, though mercifully it cools off most nights. If it were longer days, we might not have that welcome cool and fresh air in the wee hours

And finally winter stolice this year came in with some sad health news. After 15 months of battling cancer I just found out I did not win, and have to keep going, only this time knowing my foe is stronger than I thought. Considering how tough winter is, I am not looking forward to winter as well as, that.

Travis, if only I could bottle summer sun, vitality, plus the growth, abundance and healing health of nature in some kind of lovely vessel and send it to you there. My wish for you is all that and more.
