October 1 has been used as a US National Lace-in-Public day for more than 10 years now. I remember honoring it when I lived in Pittsburgh (moved away from there 10 years ago), but don't remember for how long before I moved away. And June 21st is the Summer Solstice, is it not? That's usually Earth Day in the US. Robin P.
