This was the sky here at dawn yesterday:

Yes, I was up and taking pictures from around 4am: I’m loving the long days at the moment. We were reading by daylight until about 10 o’clock last night in bed: we haven’t used the bedside lamp all week.
5.45am was the powerful time, according to Wikipedia and I wanted to do something with it but then didn’t in the end, for one reason and another.
We’re celebrating a birthday here anyway today: my Solstice baby, so there’s always cake, candles, feast and gifts at this time anyway for us.
I feel like the time for planting is over for this year now, but will probably be doing a little bit more of it anyway in weeks to come. My thoughts are already turning to next year’s work: building new beds and making other improvements – even before we’ve started to harvest anything.
