"So Let it Be Written... So Let it Be Done"

The life and times of a real, down to earth, nice guy. A relocated New Englander formerly living somewhere north of Boston, but now soaking up the bright sun of southwestern Florida (aka The Gulf Coast) for over nine years. Welcome to my blog world. Please leave it as clean as it was before you came. Thanks for visiting, BTW please leave a relevant comment so I know you were here. No blog spam, please.

91,399,728

That's the distance the earth is today from the sun (in miles)- the closest we'll ever get this year. The technical term is PERIHELION. Too bad the angle is all wrong for us northern hemisphere types.

You can figure out what that works out to be in kilometers, if you're so inclined.

The opposite, APHELION, will be on July 6, 2007. (Link added 07/06/07)

Dang Green, here I am craving sun and you post about how close it is? Too bad we're in the wrong hemisphere, like you said.
