Summer Solstice Bonfire

The solstice sun breaking through the clouds, signalling the start of our celebrations.

Bonfire blazing before the sun dipped (briefly) below the horizon.

Sara, Katrina, and Anubha in homemade flower crowns. Full disclosure: We used fake flowers.

Stephanie manning the makeshift beer cooler. You don’t need ice when you have a really cold raging river.

Jamesee, aka Science, offering drinks to partygoers and/or Father Sky.

Flower children for the endless night.

Sean thawing by the fire in his apropos tie dye tee.

Mother Earth, as played by Bernita.

Jonathan of NUSCHOOL offering libations, in the form of Jello shots, to the deities.

The crowd getting ready for fireworks.

We offer the pagan gods fire in many forms.

Perpetual twilight at 02:00,
Never changing skies,
And the end of solstice.
