That delicate balance of light that will then begin its slow descent into delicious darkness.<br/><br/>Yes, I never met an alliteration I didn&#39;t like.<br/><br/>Wishing all who celebrate a delightful and happy Summer Solstice. <br/><br/>#MyAlaskaWx #akwx #Sitka #Alaska #SummerSolstice 2026-06-21T14:11:58Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs8whs0h7l7j59sez5hsu23q4az0sjqn36fxykxsxtk32wd33men3szyqpkkd7ne8zp95dal4q0u4fk5a5w94nlvlepyzk25cq2s9m6cupzwylspr8 6:00AM: 53F, overcast.<br/><br/>This is it! The penultimate day before the Solstice. Tomorrow, at 12:24AM Alaska time, the longest day of the year begins.<br/><br/>Finally, all that sun can start heading down south again on June 22nd.<br/><br/>In other news, the old joints ain&#39;t feelin&#39; that great after my hike yesterday, but it was worth it. 😎 👍 <br/><br/>#MyAlaskaWx #akwx #Sitka #Alaska 2026-06-20T14:01:27Z
