Those long Summer Evenings

Tidying up my courtyard and locking the house up before I went to bed last night, I became aware of how light it was still at 10:40pm down in the SW. A perfect still and warm evening, absolute solitude. To savour, before those pesky nights are longer than the days :twitcy:

I judge it by dog walking times:wink:

 

in winter if I'm not home by 5.30 then I'm walking dogs in the dark.

 

spring/summer I can still head to the beach at 7pm and have light until until just after 8pm.

 

you don't get late light nights here, but houses and outdoor spaces are normally set up for that.

 

i used to live in north Scotland, where it Didnt get dark until 11pm on summer nights.

 

the earlier dark nights in Perth are not a problem. People just use artificial light.

I wasn't sure I'd really miss anything if we moved back to Oz but I do like light evenings, always nice to take the 4 legs out at 9pm for an hour or so til it gets dark. It never seemed to be light past about 8-8:30 there.

I do love the long summer evenings (and so does DH!) I was knitting in the car the other day coming down from Yorkshire and I finally packed it in at 5 to 10 though I could have gone on until we reached home at 10! Fabulous!
