Every year on the Solstice, the sun would set due west of our studio windows. The shaft of light from the setting sun would shoot straight down the hallway to the other end of the studio. For some reason, that special day would fill me with joy; I felt the promise of a future of adventures to come.    

I would watch the progression of the setting sun through the year as it marched across the horizon to that one special spot, due west, on the solstice. I loved watching that progresson for 25 years or more.       

A couple of years ago a condo building was erected right across from us, due west, on that very special spot so that the setting sun no longer enters our studio on the solstice.        
      
I miss it terribly.
