    Ira asked:
    What the heck is a Summer Solstice? Is that when the sun is at its closest to the earth?
    Ira, Up here it means that the sun circles on the horizon around the cabin and only briefly goes behind the trees to the North in the middle of the night. At noon the sun reaches 49* from the horizon in the South - the highest it gets all year! :relaxing:

Hyvää Juhannusta Suomesta.......Nice photos there.. Your son is about the same age as ours is I think...meanwhile the Finn Himself on The Weber Baby Q doin up some Midsummer Reindeer Steak .. :lol: :lol:

By the way how popular is the Weber in the States - especially the Baby Q? We like it a lot due to its compact size, quality and lightness.... can be taken with anywhere :Flippin Burger: :beer: :icedtea: :fan:

Hey Heikki,

That good lookin' red-head wouldn't be Suvi, would it? WHEW! I've had a "thing" for re-heads all my life. 8) Pretty lady. Oh yeah, your boy is good looking too! :lol:

Sorry it's taken me so long to get in on this thread. What with fumbling around in the dark down here, I could'nt find my laptop. We've just had our winter solstice(shortest day of the year Ira) so I envy those of you with sunshine and warmth. Enjoy :P :beer:

Cheers
Paul :thumbsup:
