Good morning and happy summer from the Pacific Northwest! I hope you all have survived this last heatwave if you were in the east U.S., otherwise hope you enjoyed the first few days of summer! Personally, it's nice having these sunsets happen at 9:15pm because the days just feel so long. I guess it's all downhill from here.
