“Last year I went to Ireland for the solstice,” he told her. “There’s a small
stone dance there, in County Cork. It’s more intimate than Stonehenge. The
sky stays light until nearly ten, and when it begins to fade, toward the end of
the longest day, the stones sing.”

things to know about the longest day of the year

pagan rituals are your thing, this is probably a big moment for you. If not,
the solstice is still pretty neat.
