The official start of summer!
In the USA the summer solstice is the official start to summer. We celebrated at our house by having friends over to drum and sing and eat! I explained to K about the details of the summer solstice, how the earth tilts and makes this day the very longest of the whole year.
In this photo, looking toward the fenced part of the backyard, you can see the pumpkin patch on the left, and the garden doing well with lettuce on the right.
