It has always felt a bit unfair to me that the longest day of summer is also the first. It's like the season is leaving as soon as it comes - each day a little shorter than the one before it.
Here's to being hot on the heels of summertime. Chasing down every hour - every ounce of sun - as it goes.

Very true, we should really enjoy the first day of summer!
ReplyDeletei've always found it strange that the first & longest day are the same - it makes summer feel a bit fleeting - all the more reason to enjoy it to the fullest.
