June 21 is a very important day for our planet and its relationship with the sun. June 21 is one of two solstices, days when the rays of the sun directly strike one of the two tropical latitude lines. June 21 marks the beginning of summer in the northern hemisphere and simultaneously heralds the beginning of winter in the southern hemisphere.
(The longest day of the year will seem even longer as Town workers began running heavy machinery behind my house at 5:45 this morning. The Nag will be nagging someone about this!)
