Summer Solstice

 

 

Summertime Summer Solstice Quotes:
“Because it’s summer and the memories are just waiting to happen.”
-Unknown
“Palm trees, ocean breeze, salty air, sun kissed hair. That endless summer, take me there.”
-Unknown
“Summertime is always the best of what might be.”
-Charles Bowden
It’s the summer solstice, the longest day of the year.
This is the moment when the daylight will  last well into the night. My thoughts have turned to exotic places, warm ocean breezes and good times with friends. In the summer I love light and bright colors. In this case a yellow dress, a floppy straw hat and a beautiful pair of heels what more could you want when sitting on a patio overlooking a spectacular view.
I leave you with with William Shakespeare’s words:  “Whatever you dream on this night will come to pass. Have great dreams on June 21″ 
For me this is the beginning of summer. My face turns toward the warmth of the sun and I can feel my whole body start to let the winter go. The hot lazy days of July and August are just around the corner and I welcome them with open arms.
What comes to your mind when you think of the summer solstice? Enjoy this longest day of the year and have a wonderful weekend everyone.
