Play this music during the hot bright part of the day in the mid afternoon, when everyone is relaxing, having fun, working hard, trying to escape the heat, and too busy to slow down.

June 21,

The summer solstice, the longest day of the year and the first official day of summer.

*****

"The dog days off summer."

*****

from wikipedia:

The Romans referred to the dog days as diēs caniculārēs and associated the hot weather with the star Sirius. They considered Sirius to be the "Dog Star" because it is the brightest star in the constellation Canis Major (Large Dog). Sirius is also the brightest star in the night sky.

From wikipedia:

The Old Farmer's Almanac lists the traditional period of the Dog Days as the 40 days beginning July 3rd and ending August 11th, coinciding with the ancient heliacal (at sunrise) rising of the Dog Star, Sirius.

Summer vacation was invented, not to aid agriculture which had planting and harvesting in the spring and fall, but for the Upper Classes who were accustomed to leaving the cities during the hot summer months. If public school was held in the summer, the rich would not be able to go on vacation.
