Happy Hump Day Daybreak
The sun continues its steady march South as it is now approaching the northern slope of Oswald Dome for its daily first appearance. We may be in the Dog Days of Summer but the sun tells of shorter days and longer shadows as it lowers it angle of traverse across the sky!!! Mornings are still in the low 70s F / 22.2 C range but the air has a strange coolness to it! We are now almost 6 weeks since the Summer Solstice and days are getting chopped both on the morning and the evening now! Tomorrow is the last day of July and we will begin August this weekend! So only about 7 more weeks of this summer is left!!! School begins here for the children on Wednesday the 5th and their summer will officially be over even though it will be hot as blazes!!! SO LOOK for children heading and leaving school on your daily travels next week!!! Please stop for those school bus loadings and unloadings!
The sun's seasonal movement on the horizon never ceases to amaze me! I get to watch it in the eastern sky but the sunset point is steadily moving south this time of year also until it culminates at its most southern point at Winter's Solstice! Then it reverses and begins its northern trek!!! It doesn't take much to amaze me!!!! LOL
