Sunday 6-21-'26 will be the longest day of the year as per length of daylight north of the equator.

DUers might use that extended daylight to find some some joy, to show some kindness to others,
to some doggies, to the environment by planting a native plant* 🌱, and to not mention that dirt bag’s
name except if he dies and then it is party time

Specific local details for Columbus, Ohio on June 21 include aylight duration: 15 hours, 00 minutes, and 51 seconds.Sunrise: 6:01 AMSunset: 9:02 PM

* Cardinal Flower is a good one to plant.
