At about 5:00 P.M. on Friday, Heidi realized the Solstice sun was setting & sprinted 100 yards uphill for some sunset photos.



Then, we hosted some neighbors for Solstice food & spirits, & after dark hiked back up for a tour of Heidi's Solstice Art Installation.

It was a nippy evening, with a little breeze, so we put off a Solstice fire until the next night, at a larger Solstice celebration 80 miles away.

Here's Heidi & me in front of Willow Woman.


The small group of local artists & pyromaniacs who sponsor the event also provided fireworks, a laser art show, & an exuberant fire-dancer.


As usual, several hundred locals attended, dressed in everything from full-camo outfits to fine-furs. It was a non-denominational event, with a strong attraction to fire-loving fun-seekers. I chatted with some of the nearby attendees I didn't know, & the best quote of the night was from a fellow in his 50's, who exclaimed in full southern-twang:
"I ain't never seen anything like this before!"

A higher group & the full moon.


More to follow, soon!

More Willow Woman!

Before the burn, there was time to admire Willow Woman from other angles.



The burn started soon after full darkness.




The crowd loved the show.


But, Willow Woman burned up & suffered a downfall.


We left soon thereafter with our friends, but stopped for a distant photo.


Best wishes for a Happy Solstice & a sunny new year.
