The Sun in the Morning and the Moon at Night

June has some fabulous days coming up for us. For those in school - vacations are about to start. And Thursday is World Sauntering Day. Yes, a whole day that says walk slowly, observe your surroundings, take a gentle stroll and smell the roses.

Or maybe smell the strawberries. After all, it is strawberry season - and a strawberry moon is rising. The full moon is on June 18th and Native Americans tribes of the New England and Great Lakes area called it the Strawberry moon because the succulent berries are in season.

But that's not all this week has to offer -

right at the time of the full moon we have it - the official start of the summer season. June 20 is the Summer Solstice. Day is at it's fullest and longest. I always like to try to see both sunrise and sunset on this magical day. Plus we'll have the joy of an almost full moon, so if the clouds stay away. It will be a bright day all around.
