Lots of history and folk lore connected to the month of June, ya know? Here's what I mean!

June 14th is Flag Day. Learn about American Flag etiquette.
Don't forget that Father's Day is June 20th. Read about the history of Father's Day.
The Summer Solstice on June 21 heralds the beginning of summer! What is the solstice? Here's a brief explanation.
Since ancient times, June is the time for weddings, feasts, and revelry, especially on Midsummer Day, June 24, when people from Scandinavia to North Africa celebrate the summer solstice. What is Midsummer Day? Find out.
Well, now that's probably more information than you really wanted to know about the month of June! Never let it be said that the Hermit didn't do his best to furnish a little information overload!
Now...supposed to rain today, so let's get some coffee and sit on the patio while we can!
