First Day of Summer

Happy First Day of Summer, friends.

Did you know that today you can visit any National Park... for free?

June 21st is also the longest day of the year.

So, for all you happy-go-lucky freelancers,

I wish you amazing adventures today.

Go ahead, hug a tree- it's free!

"And to lose the chance to see frigatebirds soaring in circles above the storm,

or a file of pelicans winging their way homeward

across the crimson afterglow of the sunset,

or a myriad terns flashing in the bright light of midday

as they hover in a shifting maze above the beach --

why, the loss is like the loss of a gallery of the masterpieces of the artists of old time."

-Roosevelt-
