June 21st, the longest day of the year, and that is just an astronomical fact. Something to do with the tilt f the axis in our yearly orbit. The ancients noted this day in their observatories (think Stonehenge).
The beginning f summer. Tomorrow, the sunlit portion of the day will be a bit shorter, culminating on December 21s when the cycle starts again.
Today, through a fluke of the calendar is also a Hallmark holiday. Fathers Day. It's a holiday that I truly don't care about. I've never seen the utility.
