The Green Man and Summer

The Summer Solstice gives thought to the Green Man and the battle of the Holly and Oak King. [see: http://paganwiccan.about.com/od/yulethelongestnight/p/Holly_KIng_Yule.htm  and http://www.throughyourbody.com/winter-solstice-holly-king-oak-king/ ]

Summer also brings us thought on holidays, long and languid summer days.  It brings thoughts of lush growth as depicted by the artist Sara Sliwinska below:

Green Man in Summer

If you are near the mid-Atlantic and near Rehoboth beach, you can quench your thirst and feed your hunger at "The Green Man Juice Bar" in Rehoboth, Delaware,  USA.  Friends and I visited in the last few weeks and had a very enjoyable lunch!  We are looking forward to returning again.

If your summer travels take you to North Carolina, USA,  you can tour the Green Man Brewery in Asheville, North Carolina [see: http://www.greenmanbrewery.com/our-beer/?age-verified=6eec2428f1 ].
Happy Summer!
