Io dies natalis Solis Invicti

It's been a long slow grind down into darkness, and it was a thing of unspeakable beauty to see the yellow king force himself up once again out of the jaws of death, lean and angry and fighting to reconquer his vast and mighty kingdom. He swept his burning-honey eye over my country, and winked at me through the trees.

I have seen the new year, and it is awesome.

I'm thinking better for summer solstice. Not as cold (I hope!) and the sun will come up before the rush hour parking ban starts.

is sunrise as important to summer solstice? i'd be all for watching a summer sunrise over the ocean, but i'm not as familiar with the holiday (and thus have no tradition of staying up all night/watching the sunrise then).

No idea. Just thinking of my own personal comfort. ;-)
