June, the official start of Summer, is upon us.  It seems that Trutina is locked into Spring, but that will change this month.  This means the kick off of our patio months.  Many new neighbors and prospective new friends have moved into Trutina, so take the time to welcome them and to introduce yourselves.  They are people you have the opportunity to know for many years to come.

 

For those with birthdays in June your birthstones are pearl, alexandrite and moonstone.  Birth flowers are the rose and the honeysuckle. Don't forget birthday cake for everyone the last Wednesday of each month!

 

The Beta Taurids might be visible June 5th through July 16th., peaking around June 30th. The June Bootid meteor showers will begin June 26th.  Who really cares where they originated? Meteors are still pretty cool to see.  June is the best sky watching month coming our way, so try to get somewhere dark.

 

June, named after the Roman Goddess Juno, the wife of Jupiter.  In Roman mythology she was the protectress of women and of marriage.  In modern times, June is therefore known as the bridal month.  The Summer Solstice, the first day of Summer and the day with the most daylight, will be on June 21st.  Our planet will be closest to the sun on this day due to the tilt of the earth and we will be bathed in sunlight.  So, soak up that fiery energy and get your summer started.  It’s a season so full of potential.  

If you are interested you can check out Wikipedia for a list of June holidays, I think you will be surprised https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June.

 

We are an ACTIVE 55+ community and June will afford us the opportunity to be so. Wishing all of our neighbors a safe and healthy kick off to Summer!
