I always find solstice mixed. It's the start of real summer and almost the start of our monsoons that cool things down and provide much of our precipitation. But it's also the end of lengthening days.

I saw that Ezra Klein piece on the housing boom today too. Unfortunately, his charts contain a couple of serious mistakes. The home mortgage interest deduction was begun in 1913, not 1986 and Fannie Mae was created in the 1930's, not 1968. Ironically, correcting those mistakes would strengthen his argument.
