It was so refreshing to go from the heat of Washington DC to the 
Atlantic drizzle of Galway in Ireland this week.

It is pretty fun to see how the temperature lags the solar input: the 
world has a lot of thermal capacity.

Also, equinoxes are beautiful: everything aligns. I think they make the 
proper holidays, not set by human standards. We should be celebrating 
equinoxes, perihelions and apehelions.
