I have to get off my blog now and go watch for summer.
It's coming to the place I live in the Northern Hemisphere at 12:26 GMT which if my arithmetic is right is 05:26 PDT.
The lucky Irish get to start summer on May 1, but the people on the T.V. and newspapers keep saying the summer solstice (June 21st or 22nd) is when summer starts here in the good old US of A. So we have to wait a month and a half to start summer, while the Irish are cavorting around enjoying their summer.
When I was a kid summer started the day school got out and ended the day it started.
