The Longest Day of the Year

June 21!

The summer solstice, the first day of summer, and… what else?

I love this day!  I’d possibly love it even if it wasn’t my birthday.  It’s almost exactly one-half year from Christmas, so I only had to wait 6 months for the Big Present Days. (Past tense, because now all the presents are from me, to me.  So they could come at anytime during the year.)

Let’s all go swimming!

And look!  Google even did a Google Doodle for me!  Thanks, Google!  And thanks, Christoph Niemann!

To celebrate the day, I’ve added a second picture to the blog header. (The two randomly rotate.)  That means the stream value has increased 10%, making the water value now only 80% less than the original Stream of Conscience.
