Our early Solstice celebration was around the fire pit over the weekend, but I felt that the sight of this old man dancing naked would be a buzzkill, resulting in the party ending shortly thenafter. :lol:BeGreen said:

I've been in the L48 a couple of times during the summer in the last 10 years or so.
Okay so it's weird. At least when the moon isn't up. When we visited there when they were little, my kids were afraid to go out at night. I was thinking about this thread recently, and realized what was up with that. When it's dark here at night, we usually have snow, so the residual light reflects off of that and it's not dark-dark even when the moon is down. But summer nights when there is no moon down in the temperate zone are just plain dark. And there are snakes, and big bugs flying around in the night, and bats. Spooky, that.
