So the first day of summer is tomorrow. If you’re like me, you’ll be busy celebrating the summer solstice by dancing around a bonfire for several hours and making animal sacrifices to your various pagan deities. If blindfolding a goat and shoving it off into a quarry isn’t your cup of tea, then I have a milder alternative for you. You can kick back, listen to some tunes, and enjoy the longest day of sunlight. Sounds awesome either way, right? To make it easier for you, I even made a playlist. How convenient and thoughtful! By my calculation, it’s about 2 hours long which means you can listen to it 12 times in a day if you really wanted to. You can download the playlist here, here, here and here. But not here. It’s a playlist of all the songs I’ve been blogging about all Spring. The track listing is below. Enjoy your summer!
