This morning, sun and blue sky welcomed the Solsticio de verano in Oaxaca — a beautiful way to begin the longest day of the year.
View from the terrace: Templo de San José, founded by the Jesuits in 1559, on the left; Basílica de Nuestra Señora de la Soledad (Basilica of Our Lady of Solitude), constructed between 1682 and 1690, on the right; and the green mountain in the far distance between the two is Monte Albán.
Happy Summer Solstice to all!
It’s cloudy and gray in Sterling, and tomorrow is 2 seconds shorter. The number of seconds or minutes of increase and decrease is part of the daily weather report.
Wow, 2 seconds!!! Our weather report is rain forecast in the afternoon. And, sometimes it’s torrential, sometimes gentle, and sometimes not-at-all. 😉
Lovely and sunny here in Midland, Ontario. Happy summer solstice to all of our Oaxaca friends! I enjoy reading your posts!!

Thanks! When are you returning to the valley where corn was first cultivated?
