Happy Summer Solstice!


Today is June 21st, the first day of summer, and to celebrate this wonderful event, I stopped at Washington Park after work yesterday  to enjoy the late afternoon atmosphere at that Denver landmark.  Everyone was jogging, walking their dogs, just hanging out, and even canoeing (see photograph above), taking advantage of the nice warm weather.  It has turned hot here in Denver,  and is predicted to reach 97 today.  Of course, it is predicted to hit 120 degrees in Phoenix, so I guess we can't complain.  I can just imagine what the temperature will be in Phoenix in August.  Of course, it is a dry heat, so 150 degrees in Phoenix is like 70 degrees in New Orleans.  So no problem.
