Happy Solstice!

Happy Solstice!

I know the AK Family celebrates these, but why doesn't everyone? 

For Summer Solstice you should be out enjoying the longest day of the year.  For us, we're pushing 15 (16 if you want to push to include dusk).  For fairbanks, the Sun is up for ~23 hours, but the dusk never leaves...

For the Winter Solstice, why not celebrate?  It's finally going to be bright again!?!?  Denver is ~9:30, on the shortest day.  For me: that's leaving in the dark, and getting back home in the dark.  Doesn't everyone want to see the house they live in?!?!?!?    Fairbanks you ask?  Well...  3:41:12 in 2011.
