"then it gets dark again".
Thats crazy to me. Is it light always? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Here's the easy explanation: On 21 JUNE it's the summer solctice (spelling?). That day gets the most light with the sun skirting just under the horizon for a few hours then it pops back up again. You can read a book outside at 3 in the morning! After June 21st, we lose @ 5-7 minutes of light each day until 21 December when it only gets light from about 1030am to 2pm or so...then it gets DARK. After 21 Dec we start gaining light again each day until 21 June, an the cycle continues. Today for example, it's almost 3:30 pm and the sun is starting to set; still kinda light out! Plus side..the summer rocks!! Actually, around mid September, after Moose hunting season, most people are burnt out from always being on the go (with all the light). But, the minus side...winters can be looong, cooooold, and dark! If I hadn't already been sniffing glue, I'd probobly make me start drinking! </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
