This year, my husband will be working midnights, so I won't be doing laundry (too loud, especially if the agitator gets humming) nor running the dishwasher or doing dishes by hand. (He! It works for me!)

But I don't think I could really be out for long in extreme heat either.

She's active, plays golf, plays bridge and loves to shop My two siblings and I are having a friends and family over for an outdoor get-together in the afternoon. In the evening, dinner out with family only and then relaxing under the stars with my son playing the guitar. Glad it'll be a day filled with sunlight and laughter.Laurie Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12533221100348874087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36709846.post-6748264544095399592014-06-06T04:13:14.107-07:002014-06-06T04:13:14.107-07:00My husband and I tend to like to do a really long ...My husband and I tend to like to do a really long day hike sometime around the solstice because of the longer daylight hours. Since the solstice is on a Saturday this year, it is likely that we will be hiking that day. Other than that, I have never done anything to celebrate. <br /><br />I am hoping that it will actually feel like summer on the solstice. I want it be hot and sunny!

If I had my druthers, there would be cocktails and backyard fun with tiki torch lighting. I would so love to have a day of being a kid in the sprinklers again.abhand2https://www.blogger.com/profile/02016042491146871865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36709846.post-42452688506361527282014-06-04T05:14:42.079-07:002014-06-04T05:14:42.079-07:00No plans to celebrate solstice here.
